So this is what it was all for, the final set of photos…well almost. By prior consultation and mutual agreement with the Editor, there are a number of images not published here due to their unsuitability for younger viewers. It’s a privilege to be a member of this site and their rules are what I/we play by, so no complaints. But all is not lost, please read on…
There was a simple storyline to the sequence, alas somewhat disjointed now due to the redacted images of close-ups of the car (oh the irony): partisans hiding in back of the cart as the car approaches to overtake; the ambush sprung, then a search through documents/maps in the car to glean intelligence. The kid’s kept at a distance as a lookout on the cart, he and his father are not willing participants but coerced…German reprisals against the local populace were common.
For those who do want to see the complete set, permission has been given for this link (with apologies for the risible first screen):
http://village.photos/members/Dioramartin/A-Shot-in-the-Dark---the-complete-setThe journey of this dio began as a whine about a plastic kit, but ends – as far as I’m concerned – as a remembrance of all victims of extremist politics. Whether they believed in them or not, they all died for insane reasons. In this vignette, the only likely survivor of the Great Patriotic War was the horse.
Thanks for checking in one more time. Giddyap dobbinskaya…
