Fading into the cigarette smoke

family

Part of the clan of the overseer of New England Diary, Robert Whitcomb (far right), about 1962 on Cape Cod. Note how the Robert Frostian effect of the grandfather at the left is slightly diluted by the cigarette. Six of the people in the photo and the photographer (my father) are all long dead, perhaps as you'd expect.
