The day was unusually warm and full of moisture, as, without hat, in the burning sun I tried for over an hour to get snapshots, while two kinds of bees, one very small, persistently clung to my hands, face, and hair.
Now he might be permitted to have some fudge and also look at your snapshots. He's getting impatient," pleaded Kit, as she and Bet wandered away into the drawing room and Joy danced out to the kitchen for more fudge. The Colonel was always interested in the progress Shirley was making in photography. She seemed to have a decided talent for taking pictures.
It was one of a row of houses, nondescript but comfortable, in a pleasant street. It seemed familiar I had seen Molly's snapshots of it often. I cannot tell you what it felt like to be really there to walk down the street, up the path, up the steps to the veranda. I was trembling as with ague, I was chalk-white I knew was I not in another moment to see my wife!
The top part of the last page is always devoted to military snapshots, and a face smiled up at me from it a face I had seen once and never forgotten. My heart gave a jump, Padre, because the one tiny, abbreviated dream-romance of my life came from the original of that photograph.
What is not determinable is not representable: of "becoming in general" I have only a verbal knowledge. As the letter x designates a certain unknown quantity, whatever it may be, so my "becoming in general," always the same, symbolizes here a certain transition of which I have taken some snapshots; of the transition itself it teaches me nothing.
Then came the introduction of aerial photography on a large scale, and with it a complete bird's-eye plan of all enemy defence works, pieced together from a series of overhead snapshots that reproduced the complete trench-line, even to such details as barbed wire.
On the first day after a horrific chronicle of events, which filled several pages with paragraphs and snapshots, he read a story about a father and a daughter, a girl of fifteen: it was narrated as though it were a matter of course, and even rather moving. Next day, in the same paper, he read a story about a father and a son, a boy of twelve, and the girl was mixed up in it again.
It was long before the days of kodaks and their snapshots, which add so much to our enjoyment of everyday incidents. Although Deerfoot did not waste any time, it took him a fortnight to thread his way through that immense range which ribs the western part of our continent.
Sometimes there is a partial compensation in the sunset picture, but I have never seen that when it really rivalled the picture at the beginning of the day. The visitor to Cuba, unfamiliar with the island, should take it leisurely. It is not a place through which the tourist may rush, guide book in hand, making snapshots with a camera, and checking off places of interest as they are visited.
But the tourists were well supplied with their own outfits, and these amateurs, disdaining the offered professional services, secured snapshots themselves. "What!" said one of the amateurs indignantly, "let the Turks take us? No! let some of the party stay on the steps and we will take the picture and include the Turks in it."
