The Gallery: First Lunch
So on Sunday 29th August I had plans to go to the Fringe Festival in Edinburgh. I was going to take lots of photos and choose the best one to submit to Tara’s Gallery – this week’s theme was to publish a photo you’d taken on Sunday 29th August 2010.
I didn’t go to the festival as planned and I only took one photo that day (completely forgetting about The Gallery). That photo is below;
Erin’s first lunch at school!
This actually turned out to be a very poignant picture as part of the reason for The Gallery was to highlight the fact that three mum bloggers are visiting Bangladesh to raise awareness for the Press for Change campaign.
This photo highlights the stark difference between what we can afford to provide our children with while children on the other side of the world suffer from malnutrition and starvation. To think I was worried that I had no fresh fruit that day.
Excellent post, really puts things into perspective!
That is a super lunch by the way!
great idea great photo x
Great post. Reading the gallery posts this week has really put a lot into perspective and each one I read makes me more and more grateful for what I have.
so very true – we are so lucky and sometimes we need to stop and remember that
Thanks Alethea, notesredshoes – though the photo was more an accident than anything, and the lunch could have been a bit healthier!
Whimsical Wife – I felt like that too as I looked at the picture of her lunch.
Excellent photo of what we take for granted. x
