Thanks for the comments. Glad you thought it was interesting.
Also, I did reply to some specific questions and comments, but for those to whom I haven't specifically replied, thanks for taking the time to comment. I didn't want to waste bandwidth, replying to each and every one of you, unless your comment required a specific answer.
And, Marnie, I agree that the explanation wasn't necessary. I left the photo for a couple of days before that post. There seemed to be a few who were a bit unsettled about the photo, so I thought that some background might be helpful. Normally, I'll just let the photo do the talking, but in this case, the photo may not have portrayed what was seemingly going on.
Anyway, again, thanks for taking the time to look and to comment, to you and everyone else who did so.
cheers, frank

I thought it might possibly be father and son. Father taking son to task for
smoking or about to hug him. The "boy" looks almost young enough to still be
hugged by Dad, when not acting tough that is. ;-)
Interesting photo, frank.
Not necessary to know history, really.
Marnie aka Doe Unless it just makes it more interesting.
