Oh Dios mío!.... Contraste enorme. Me parece preciosa y demasiado triste a la vez.

At this age, however they sleep and wherever ..... all is right with the world for a moment..To view a sleeping child who appears quite healthy for now ... it is a space for any parent ( hopefully there is one, or a guardian - a friend or the photographer ) to take a breath and feel the love. .. against the shade of the mud wall.

Me veio a lembrança da imagem do menino Jesus, envolto em panos na mangedoura!

The gentleman on the right is legendary aviator, air racer, Lockheed Test Pilot, and regarded by many as "The Father of Area 51," Anthony W. "Tony" LeVier. See: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_LeVier The aircraft in the background is a Lockheed F-104 Starfighter. I am currently unable to identify the pilot in the pressure suit.

Next to Tony is Bob Mattey not sure of the spelling. He was also a test pilot and was killed in a plane crash not long after this photo

Since these people have been identified, you need to change the title and remove this from the "need identification" album.

Correction on the identity of the test pilot in the pressure suit. Tony LeVier (right) is shaking hands with fellow test pilot Joe B. Jordan (left), on the day that Gordon set the (then) world altitude record of 103,395 ft in a US Air Force Lockheed F-104C Starfighter (56-0885), December 14, 1959.
