The site doesn’t give credit to the photographer, nor can I find that information anywhere, so if anyone knows who took this shot, please put it in the comments and we’ll link the pic to their site instead. In the meantime, here are a different kind of shadow children.

    For some reason, I find this picture disturbing.

    It is a little eerie, no doubt.

    I like that it’s so evocative, yet indirect. To me, it speaks of the power of children to affect us even when they are not physically present, and about the role of children in our society. Are they to be seen and not heard? Are they a minority in their own right? Or are they people-in-training, who won’t “graduate” till they become grownups. This picture asks so many more questions than it answers, and that’s what I love about it.
