I'm elbow deep in electric eels, so no year-end wind up/down. I'll just leave you with some memorable images from 2006.
Best to all in 2007.

wg2c - as patiently waiting explains, that is a classic Depression-era photo' by a woman named Dorothea Lange. I used it in this post on affordable housing back in November.
bc_cele- your image ought to have been at the top. It was just happenstance that it was at the bottom. It kind of fit there as I proclaimed the end of anon. comments. I have been vacillating on the issue because some of the anon. posters actually have good input, and out-number the toolish, foolish anon. comments. Chipman's blog has taken a turn for the worse with the vituperous anon. comments, and numerous times people have suggested canning them here. It's a quandary.
Thanks to all for dropping by, and commenting.
Happy New Year!!
Dorothea Lange's image of the "Migrant Mother" has been called one of the "13 photographs that changed the world".

I hope our future is better than her past: "...she was thirty-two. She said that they had been living on frozen vegetables from the surrounding fields, and birds that the children killed. She had just sold the tires from her car to buy food."
