Didn’t know where to post this. But whatever. My grandson sent me this TikTok pic because he knows I’m into photography. I found this picture strange for 1941. So I looked up the history. Russia invaded Finland 1939, Germany was aiding Finland. Finland attacked Russia in 1941. WW2 is in the middle of all that. I don’t know. Looks like these guys didn’t get the memo. 🤷🏼

Just imagine what the human race could accomplish if they would quit fighting, expending blood and treasure on an endless conflict. Where could we be now ? Great photo, it could be done ( outlaw politicians ).

Judging by what we see in places like the Attic, we'll need to outlaw a lot more than politicians if you really want peace.

Yes it is a “feel good” photo isn’t it?

Agree, but don't see that lust for power, greed, and hate can ever be done away with... wish it could.

Assuming it is an actual photograph (not AI), I see three photographers talking photography. Pictured by a fourth photographer? Four photographers from at least three different regimes, in one place at the same time? Hmm

Maybe they had a tripod. But yes I see your point and had thought about it. But then someone went to the trouble of making an interesting photo rather than some of the garbage you see on SM.

Photo taken just before hostilities broke out because of disagreement over whether Nikon was better than Canon.😊

This would be wonderful but there is always some kind of feud going on somewhere.

Watch the ID channel, ORD, and you'll come to see that there are so many people out there with absolutely no conscience. Not everybody's brain works like yours and mine. Just like John, it's a lovely sentiment. All we can do is live our own lives well and influence those who we might to do the same.
