Some serious negotiation going on here - or maybe just exchanging turkey recipes! ;-) Wonderful slice-of-life capture, Mitch! #1368804

Tammy M. Anderson level-deluxe April 12, 2011

Great capture, Mitch. I don't think the kids are taking things so seriously. LOL. #9347010

Marty Straub April 12, 2011

Oh, man, I'm with those kids. What do you suppose he is up to with that look on his face; and the one to the rear seems to be ready to kiok the butt of his conniving friend. Are the women haggleing over the price of turkeys or gossiping about some ne're do well in town? So much to imagine here, Mitch ~a sure sign of a true winning photo. #9347437

You know I have long been a fan -- this is better than ever. The expressions, colors and textures cannot be beat and as others have said, the stories and relationships it suggests are endless. Simply wonderful. #9354603
