Not necessarily THAT kind; the group at left. Looks like they stopped long enough to chat and register on the photo.

Foggy memory too

I spent fourteen loooooong years as a Jacksonville resident and doggone if any of these recent pictures of the place looks even remotely familiar. Probably a combination of "progress," Florida-style, plus simple repressed memory.

Up to no good,

or just watching the world go by - the guy sat on the wall. I find the overall image very atmospheric with the slightly misty atmosphere and the spooky figures caught moving by the long exposure.
