I think Britney rewrote the story, but I think their great grandmother wrote it more than twenty years ago when their parents went to Washington. I have the story because I sometimes stay with the great grandmother to be sure she eats and takes her medicine. She's a total hoot, and she wrote lots of stories. How did you know about Britney?



They used to be on TFS a while back but deleted their profile. I used to read their stories and the one you were translating seemed oddly familiar.



Barbaric!

Bees for birds? Have no clue myself



Oh, so you don't read Spanish. Well, thanks for trying. Now, I realize that you have sixty-two pictures, not just eighteen. A couple, which I thought were birds, are insects. The lady who wrote the story, which I have tried to translate, has a theory about art. She says that it should always tell a story. With photography that must be really difficult. I don't think that I have ever see a picture of an Ansel Adams tree that told a story, but his photography of the Manzanar Interment Camp has at least one that I think could have a story. The picture has a very nervous white GI holding an M-1 rifle, and he is surrounded by casually dressed internees. I'll look at your pictures and see if I can think of a story.

I have no idea what you are on about, but needless to say I will try read this tomorrow.

Doesn't your brain explode with all that knowledge? Joking

Oh wait a minute, I get you, you are saying that pictures should tell a story in order to be more interesting, like candid captures etc....?

Your pictures are beautiful, and I know nothing of photography, but the pictures I remember, like the Adam's picture I mentioned, are the ones that I can connect with a story.

How 'bout a picture like the fruit plate combined with the carrot cake.

To carrot or to cake: that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the pallet to suffer
The calories and carbohydrates of outrageous diet,
Or to take fork against a plate of portions,
And by chewing eat them?

Edit: Thanks for the compliment, but I am not as smart as I seem. I'm surrounded most of the time by nerdy adults, who have read tons of books. It's like I have my own personal encyclopedia.

I have received personal message's from people who appear not to know that the following poem is a parody of a speech from Hamlet, a play by Shakespeare. I need to say that because my mother gets really annoyed if I appear to be taking credit for something that is not my own work. I did the parody, but Shakespeare wrote Hamlet's speech.

Párrafo Número Seis

El dia proximo, Conchi se levantó a las cinco de la madrugada, por lo que podría hacer el pelo. Al desayuno, habían un simulacro de incendio. Se fueron fuera de quince minutos. Unos de los estudiantes ya no han comidos, así que volvíeron dentro por terminar a comer antes de que se obtuvo en el autobus. Las luces no volver sobre. Tuvieron que comer en la oscuridad. Qué barbaridad.
