The image is a black and white photograph depicting two men engaged in agricultural work. The man on the left, wearing striped overalls and suspenders with rolled-up sleeves, appears to be shucking corn as he holds it against his body with both hands and looks down at it intently. His posture suggests concentration or possibly fatigue from labor.

The second man is dressed in a light-colored long-sleeved shirt, dark trousers, and a straw hat. He stands beside an ensilage cutter labeled "PAPEC," which has corn husks spilling out of its chute onto the ground. The machine seems to be part of a larger operation for processing crops, likely for animal feed or silage.

They are in front of what looks like a barn with vertical siding and a sloped roof, partially obscured by piles of discarded corn stalks that create a backdrop filled with various shades of gray and brown foliage from trees. The setting appears rural, possibly on farmland given the presence of agricultural machinery and crops.

The photograph captures an everyday scene in American agriculture during what could be mid-20th-century America, as suggested by the style of clothing and the type of farming equipment used.

The image is a black and white photograph depicting two residential houses on an urban street. The house in the foreground has a prominent gabled roof, covered porch with four columns supporting it, and decorative trim around windows and along the edges of the siding. A large pile of split firewood sits at its entrance, indicating preparation for heating during cooler months or possibly as fuel for cooking.

The second house is partially obscured by the first but appears to have a similar architectural style with wooden siding and an overhanging gable on top. The street in front has no visible traffic and seems quiet. There are bushes along the side of the houses, suggesting landscaping efforts made by homeowners or municipal services.

Inscriptions at the margins include "Dorothea Lange" as part of a credit line indicating her association with photographing Portland's communities during certain periods. This suggests that the photo may be from a historical context involving social documentation work undertaken in urban areas for public records, cultural archives, or educational purposes. The mention of woodpiles along streets and their associated costs implies economic conditions of those times.

The overall scene captures an everyday moment with architectural details reflecting residential styles popular at specific periods within American history.

The image depicts an old-fashioned urban setting, likely from the early to mid-20th century. The prominent feature is a row of classic automobiles parked along what seems to be a street in front of commercial buildings. There are at least four cars visible: two sedans and two trucks, all with rounded body shapes indicative of models produced during that era.

The first car on the left appears worn out, with its wheels exposed due to missing hubcaps or tires, suggesting it might not be in regular use or could have been involved in some form of mechanical failure. The second vehicle is a sedan directly behind the first one; this car shows signs of rust and age but retains most of its body panels.

The third automobile from the left appears somewhat better maintained compared to the others with visible wheels, though it's still quite old-fashioned by today's standards. It has distinctive side mirrors attached at an angle—a design characteristic of certain vintage models.

Finally, there is a sedan on the far right; this vehicle seems relatively well-preserved and might be in working condition. Its headlights are intact, as opposed to many other vehicles that have missing or broken lamps.

The buildings lining the street include a storefront with "SAFEWAY" signage above its entrance—a company known for grocery stores established during World War II—and another establishment featuring an advertisement for Coca-Cola's popular [...]

https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2017762923/

The image captures a bustling urban scene from an elevated vantage point, possibly from the second story of a building. It is taken in black and white, suggesting it could be historical or intended to evoke a sense of nostalgia.

On Seventh Avenue at West 28th Street, New York City appears busy with life as garment workers leave their factories for what seems like their noon-hour break. The street below is filled with people walking on the sidewalks, crossing streets, and standing in groups engaged in conversation. Their attire reflects an earlier era; men are seen wearing suits, hats, ties, and overcoats while some women wear dresses or coats.

Traffic from that time can be observed moving along Seventh Avenue: classic cars such as a Chevrolet sedan with its rounded design characteristic of the late 1930s to early '40s. The architecture is indicative of mid-20th-century New York, featuring large commercial buildings lining the street and adorned with signage for businesses like "GALERAND" and other enterprises.

Several pedestrians are carrying items such as briefcases or bags, likely related to their work at garment factories. Traffic lights regulate the flow of vehicles amidst this busy urban setting. The absence of modern infrastructure elements suggests that this photograph might be from early mid-20th century America when pedestrian traffic was denser and vehicular movement more regulated by manual signals.

https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2017772698/

The image is a black and white photograph of two residential houses situated on a street. The house in the foreground has a prominent front porch with four posts supporting an overhang, adorned with decorative brackets under its eaves. A wooden railing extends along the side of the porch, leading to steps that ascend to the entrance door. On the upper right corner of this structure stands a chimney.

The second house is slightly set back from the street and features a gabled roof with two visible dormer windows, one on each slope. It also has a front porch supported by four posts, but without any railing or decorative elements seen in its neighbor's design. A man appears standing at the top of this porch, seemingly leaning against a door frame.

Between these houses is an array of stacked wood piles arranged symmetrically on either side of the street curb, indicative of residential heating needs for colder seasons. The clear sky and well-maintained surroundings suggest that it might be during daytime hours in temperate weather conditions.

https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2017772697/

A black-and-white photo depicts stacks of woodpile along a suburban street in Portland, Oregon. The image captures three wooden houses with large porches on the upper level and second-story windows flanking each side; two stacked sets of logs can be seen at various stages of completion, occupying nearly half of one sidewalk. This scene is reminiscent of traditional practices where such piles served as fuel for homes before modern heating options took hold in urban areas. The absence of people suggests a quiet or non-residential time of day when the street was less busy.

This photograph likely holds historical significance and may have been taken by Dorothea Lange, whose work documented social conditions during her tenure with FSA (Farm Security Administration). This context implies that such scenes were part of larger narratives exploring societal issues like economic hardship or rural life in American cities.

In this case the sack weighs approximately fifty pounds. Took three hours to pick, for which, on basis of seventy-five cents per one hundred pounds of picked cotton, he will be paid thirty-eight cents

https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2017771034/

The image is a black and white photograph depicting two men working on what appears to be a cotton farm. The man in the foreground, wearing a straw hat, light-colored long-sleeve shirt, pants rolled up at the cuffs, and brown work shoes, stands with his back partially turned towards the camera while examining or handling some cotton bales near a cart loaded with more of these bales.

The second man is standing on top of another wooden structure in the background, possibly overseeing the operation. He wears dark-colored clothing, including pants, boots, and what seems to be an apron over his shirt, which could suggest he's involved in handling or processing cotton as well.

In the foreground, there are scattered leaves and debris on a sandy ground that suggests outdoor agricultural work conditions. The cart with bales of cotton is being loaded onto this wooden structure by one of the men, while another worker appears to be carrying more cotton across his shoulder. No significant background elements other than these figures and their immediate surroundings can be clearly seen due to perspective.

The photograph gives a sense of rural labor life, likely from an early 20th-century context given its monochrome nature and attire style of the workers. The scene is indicative of agricultural work practices during that period in places like Kern County, California, as mentioned in the image's caption.

https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2017763306/

The image is a black and white photograph depicting two men in what appears to be an agricultural setting, likely from the early 20th century. The man on the left wears a wide-brimmed hat, overalls with rolled-up sleeves, and boots, suggesting he may be engaged in manual labor or fieldwork. He leans against a makeshift wooden table, which is supported by two sawhorses.

The second man stands behind the first, wearing a light-colored suit jacket, dark vest, trousers tucked into knee-high leather boots, and also with a hat resembling a bowler or derby style. His posture indicates he might be in conversation or offering assistance to the other man.

They are surrounded by rows of crops that extend beyond them, indicative of cultivated fields commonly found on agricultural farms during this era. In the background, there's what looks like a wooden crate filled with harvested produce and some scattered debris around the field ground.

The overall atmosphere is one of quiet industriousness typical of rural labor scenes from historical America. The image captures a moment that could be associated with tasks such as crop checking or harvesting in agricultural settings where manual work was prevalent, possibly reflecting on issues related to farm workers' conditions during the early part of this century's Great Depression era.

There are visible inscriptions and marks suggesting it might have been taken for official documentation [...]

Cotton pickers. Southern San Joaquin Valley, California

#Cotton #California #second #first #DorotheaLange #America #undefined #photography #DorotheaLange

https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2017763284/

The image is a black and white photograph depicting two individuals working in a cotton field. The person on the right appears to be picking or examining the cotton plants, wearing a cap, sunglasses, long-sleeve shirt, overalls, gloves, and protective headgear, possibly for dust protection. This individual's focus seems concentrated as they bend slightly forward towards one of the cotton bolls. In contrast, the second person on the left is turned away from the camera, with their back to us. They are also dressed in a long-sleeve shirt, overalls, and protective headgear similar to the first worker.

The field itself looks dry and arid, characteristic of agricultural landscapes during certain seasons or regions where cotton cultivation takes place. The plants have bolls ready for harvesting, indicating that it's likely harvest time. There is no visible machinery or other workers in close proximity; thus, this scene suggests manual labor as the primary method of cotton picking.

This photograph can be associated with Dorothea Lange, a renowned photographer known for her work during the Great Depression and World War II. Her works often highlighted social issues such as poverty, unemployment, and industrial agriculture's effects on rural life in America. The image is likely part of this body of work that documents agricultural laborers' experiences.

Tally. Cotton field in South Texas

#SouthTexas #second #undefined #photography #DorotheaLange

https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2017763183/

The black and white photograph captures a moment of rural agricultural life, with two individuals engaged in fieldwork. One person is squatting on the ground while writing or marking something on a notebook held between their knees; they are wearing a wide-brimmed hat for sun protection and layered clothing appropriate for farm labor, including overalls and gloves.

The second individual stands to the left of the image, dressed similarly with workwear, but only partially visible from behind. They appear to be watching or waiting alongside the person writing in their notebook. The background reveals an open field indicative of a cotton plantation, consistent with historical agricultural practices in South Texas as suggested by additional context.

A vehicle is parked further back among tall grasses, which suggests that this work might involve transportation of goods or tools across fields using such vehicles. Overall, the photograph evokes themes of manual labor, rural life, and possibly social commentary on working conditions during a specific historical period.

'Take the gun'

This was foreseen (by those who are not #American) and know some history.
#Trump / #Bondi talk about 'Take the Gun...'

No #dictator wants guns around his domain
Today #US is no longer protected 'by a' #Constitution that guaranteed the #Second Amendment or any right
By voting Trump Americans renounced the protection of their rights and they did so consciously
It was inevitable that Trump began to talk about 'Take the Gun Away'
not for the right reasons, >just to protect his ass.
