Remember those days how difficult it was to pose for a photograph? Cameras were hard to come by and we had to either call the photographer over or go to his studio. He would then give us instructions how to stand – a little this side- no a bit to the right please – that’s too much – a bit to the left please………..and by the time the photo was taken we would be totally exhausted.
Last but not the least it was important that we gave a smile and that he managed to do by asking us to say cheese.
What you see in the photo was of a naughty kid that said cheese in her own way.

No

I vividly remember taking pictures at a young age.
Posing for the photographer in those days was quite a torture (lol)
Such precious memories, we take many things for granted now
Precious indeed and then what about waiting anxiously to see if they have come out ok (lol)
You remind me what I had forgotten
Me too. I was just browsing through my photos folder and came across this little ones photo and memories of my childhood flashed back.
I still say cheese till date. I feel it’s just a simpler way to smile, especially thse days when I don’t feel like.
So they make you put on an artificial smile (lol)
Lol, yea. And luckiky the pics still come out great.
We use to say cheese before capturing a picture
Do you still say it. I do not think now with so many selfies around
