The farmers might as well be her parents or brides maids. Why not put the bride to work with the barn rake, and have one of the farmers hold the bouquet or something? I don't know, but there is something rather generic about this which kind of makes it not such an unusual image as perhaps the photographer might have hoped.

It does not mean anything, because mystery means nothing either, it is unknowable." -René Magritte A lot of the time, I just like creating images that create confusion for absolutely no reason at all. David, you hit it right on the head ; ) Thank you!

2. Caroline Ghetes (WPD Member, This Entry's Contestant) - (4/2/2009 1:00:51 PM) I think that is probably the point of this photo. That there is no point. Just confusion, and thought provoking, and maybe injected with a little bit of humor ; )
