"Dear Lance,
I have found one of your photos, photo number 428. To tell you the story, I was in college (Trinity College Dublin), and was cleaning up the room for the Christian Union society, a society of which I am a committee member. I took out some dirty mugs to wash them in the sink down the end of the hall. As I was washing them, I turned and saw your photo attached to the door. I went over to see what it was, and found it extremely interesting. I would love to know more about this photo if that's at all possible.
Much thanks, -- Ruairí Kell" (9/9/10)

PX No.475 (FX No.91)
Shot of the Doudou (Ducasse de Mons) procession in Mons, Belgium. These are the kids from the Petit Doudou carrying the little dragon. This is a festval that has been going on in my village for more than 650 years!!! There is a procession of religious relics throughout the town accompanied by hundreds of people from many different churches and organizations. After which there is a dramatic exhibition where a man on horseback representing Saint George, slays a huge dragon model carried by several other men. It is an amazing world heritage event that is much more exciting than it sounds and attracts tens of thousands of people. Find out more about it here: (Ducasse de Mons)

FOUND: By Peter Durel - "I Found No # 472 at Grady Hospital, Georgia,USA ( 7th flr.) June 27th 2011. Thought it was one of those hate ads since they looked like KuKluxKlans. I was ready to rip it,but decided to view it further and check your site instead. Still don't know who or what they are, but pretty sure not KKK's. Can you tell me something about the picture? It's interesting that they seem like they are holding a big green umbrella."
