A Dog, Two Kids, and Dark Shadows

Stamped on the back of this photo: "Aug 18 1949."

Posted to the Vintage Photos Theme Park group as an "unintended people's shadows" photo (and there's a dog, too!).

I love the way that, now matter how sunny the subject, the unintended shadows nearly always lend a sinister air to a picture. To me, anyway.
Great contrast here between good and innocence and lurking evil. : )

Thanks! I think you've hit the nail on the head. Shadows signify that others are there watching and lurking off-camera, and who knows what they're up to!
