Challenge/Exercise

When I first started writing, way waaaaay back in school, our English teacher had a picture book filled with news photos. Most were from the post-WWII era in Europe, and all were of people in various situations. We had to choose photos to use as inspiration for stories. I've looked for a similar book many, many times since, without luck, but today found a site that suits the purpose. Soooo...

I thought I'd post a weekly "challenge" - write a story (drabble, short, long, whatever) around the picture I post; the only caveat is that one (or more) of the guys has to be someone in the picture (and time frame/genders of the picture can be ignored). Nothing that needs to take a lot of time, but more to do a little pondering on character back stories.

So - Photo Challenge #1
