A vintage look at summer for Summer Stock Sunday, hosted by Robin at Around the Island.
This picture was taken by my grandfather in the mid-1940's, when my mom and her brother were taken to the travelling circus when it visited Sydney, Cape Breton, Nova Scotia.
I've always thought this shot looks like a still from an old film.
Mama Zen says It does look like a still from an old film. That is so neat!
Patty Reiser says This photograph reminds me of "The Little Rascals." Wishing you a wonderful Summer Stock Sunday! Celebrate Life and Capture It!
Robin says Certainly nothing says summer better than cotton candy at the circus.

how lucky you are to have it :)
This photograph reminds me of the television show here in the USA called "The Little Rascals" I loved this show growing up as a kid. They just don't make 'em like they used to.
Wishing you a wonderful Summer Stock Sunday!

What a great shot, it really does look like an old movie still, and certainly nothing says summer better than cotton candy at the circus.
