Don't worry, these children were not harmed in any way. I found these adorable pictures taken by the thought-provoking photographer (and Mother) Jill Greenberg on My Modern Metropolis last week and had to share them with you. My initial reaction was, "Oh my heart! These babies look so sad!" and I wanted to wrap my arms around each and every one of them and buy them huge ice cream cones but then I chuckled to myself because these kidlets were probably crying over spilled milk. Literally. Children are so dramatic at this age (my nephew whimpers and cries if he doesn't leave Walmart without a new toy to take home with him, as if he'll die without it) but their feelings and emotions are so pure which is beautiful, don't you think? Jill Greenberg said of these series of photos taken in 2006, "Pictures of children crying capture raw emotion: sputtering rage and profound loss. In many ways we become desensitized to disturbing images. But the honesty of a child's feelings is undeniable and it draws you in to the photograph. Perhaps because kids experience the kind of powerful emotions that we, as adults, have suppressed in ourselves." What do you think of these pictures? To see more of the series, click here.
I hope you all had a good weekend and for those of you dealing with Hurricane Irene and/or its aftermath, I hope you're safe, stay safe!
