Paid whom? The photographer or the family?

Michiel2005 You're right. Sorry, I was unclear... Mrs White paid A.H. Poole photographers to take this photo.

This is just so powerful on so many levels that it is hard to look at, hard to see and hard not to feel deeply moved by it. Three times over the past twenty four hours members of my family have mentioned the homeless and the current weather conditions and then this photograph appears, what a powerful image to reinforce that problem? If Mrs. White paid to have this photograph taken it was not for her delectation but to be used to illustrate a point and we are the beneficiaries of her munificence. This shot is so stark and such a powerful reminder of the brutality of poverty and how it can affect across those generations. Super if disturbing shot Carol, thank you for the reminder!

I'm sure that he was just thrilled to be standing in the water and mud . Allies were ordered not to give up any ground ( that dictated were the tranches were placed ) , on the other hand Germans were opting for high ground to keep them relatively dry. Guess were all the stuff from German trenches end up ?

“ And kind old King George
Sent Mother a note
When he heard that father was gone.
It was, I recall,
In the form of a scroll,
With gold leaf and all.
And I found it one day
In a drawer of old photographs, hidden away.
And my eyes still grow damp to remember
His Majesty signed
With his own rubber stamp. “
Pink Floyd

In 1899, the Russian Tsar ordered construction of the city of Dalny as a major Asian seaport at the eastern terminus of the Trans-Siberian Railway. It is now the city of Dalian, a seaport in south Liaoning Province, in northeastern China, in the region once known as Manchuria.
