I like the ‘old couple comfort’ of the top image and the joyousness of the bottom one – but I find the middle one disturbing. He looks angry and the standing woman’s body language is tense with anticipation. Who is off frame to the right? his wife? Interesting collection and lots going on in each shot.

I love the phrase you used, “old couple comfort” — three words that say a lot. In the second picture, I notice that the hand on the extreme right is wide across the knuckles and is wearing a wedding band. I presume that the person off frame is her husband. The gentleman in the centre wears no ring so I am wondering if he is a guest. But then again, perhaps he doesn’t wear a ring because it is dangerous when working on farm equipment. That is the “wonder” part.
Did you notice what is hanging above the heads of the third couple?
