Twins

I am a bit limited on time for photography at the moment because I have a few projects on the go. One project is tracing family history for a friend of mine. We traced her family about 8 years ago and now we are working on updates and her ex husbands side of the family.

I was looking through old photos a few days ago, as are many people during Covid times, and came across this photo taken at the Olive Tree market in Newcastle in 2019 BC (before Covid). Can any of us remember how we were able to wander around a market stall during normal times.

I feel as though these ladies should be singing 'I ain't got nobody' ha ha

This is such a great image. Their eyes! I love their “hats”, wraps, just terrific.

[bruni]

I was going to say the same and then I read Lou Ann's commen.t. love the colorful head wraps.

[KWind]

Intense eyes. I love your "BC" before covid comment!

[Esther Rosenberg]

Ha! you are such great story teller. Great shot

[Diana]

Great image and narrative. Wish it will all be over soon and off to the markets we go again.

Fun shot!

[Issi Bannerman]

Gorgeous faces and head decorations. Ha ha ... I remember when BC meant 'before children' (amongst other things ...). A whole new world has just opened up!

Cool shot. The girls look like twins. I hope these heads weren't chopped off during the French revolution, hehe.

I do hope the markets start up again soon. Our restrictions are slowly easing as we haven't had any community cases lately, but it could all shut down again if we get another cluster.

[Rob Z]

It's a wonderful shot with that composition and colour contrast. :)

[aikiuser (jenn)]

"Ain't Got No Body" -- LOL!!!

[KV]

Cool shot in pre-COVID times!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

I looked at this and immediately thought, "Two heads are better than one". They look a little odd just sitting in a platter- but it sure makes an interesting photo!

[Dora Prokosh]

Oh the good old times. What we took for granted is such a treasure now.

[Elizabeth]

Lovely head wraps! If I had one, I wouldn’t have to do my hair.
