Family Fun

The official description says this is two women and five men, but I'm seeing four women and three men. What say you?

I think yer right.

Looks like a good time :)

Uh oh, I saw four and four. But I'm pretty tired. I think one of the "men" is a rock. (See that little grinning face with a Saddam mustache
and a flat hat?)

A, I have to say, I have no idea what you're talking about.

Over the shoulder of the rifle-holder who is second from the left.

Maybe I spent too much time at a formative stage decoding the little faces on the Sgt Pepper album cover.

2 women, 2 young men/boys, 3 men

Ms. Moon said...

Nope. You're right. Four women, three men.

All I see is a Thanksgiving celebration I wish I was invited to.

I can still see the tiny face emerging from the wall. But he's too small to be counted, aside from not being human. That hatchet sure has a skinny handle.

Oh yeah, I see 4 women. & although the details of the photo omit a name, there are four feminine names listed: Clemmie, Loma, Martha & Frances. What a great shot. I'm tickled that you've had some time to post lately!

That Hank said...

A: Now I see your little fellow. Good eye.

Yep, I'm still going with 4 women (the folks across the front). I wish I could see the dog better.

x-ray: me, too! I just had to get the school rhythm down.

Obviously four women. And they are having fun. I love this picture.

It's so interesting that their genders seems to be clearly different to different observers.
