I like to hear people's opinions, and therefore I thought of asking everyone here their opinion on a picture. When you see the picture I have attached what do you think? Please, if you wish to write a little story then go right ahead, I would love to hear it! I appreciate everyone's responses!What I think of when I see this picture: I think of a man and woman on a horse and buggy on the way to their wedding, or to the town to pick up produce. I think of the woman in a nice dress and the man in a top hat with gloves on. I also think of the man wearing a cowboy hat (Indiana Jones style) and a pair of jeans. The woman would still be wearing the dress. It's a romantic picture, and I feel happy looking at it. So what do you think of the picture?

I think it is a very nice picture,and when it I see it,I think of a nice spring day, where it is sunny,but not too hot,and a man and a woman are going for a ride through a park for a romantic date,where when they get to the park,the man proposes to the woman,and then they kiss,so I agree the picture is very romantic,and I wish there were still horse drawn carriages around.

Here I had skimmed ahead and thought you were talking about us kissing! My! Lol, I love you and I do agree that I Wish there were horse carriages still around because I think that it would be a very romantic ride. I don't think many people would really be shocked to see it here and everyone would be friendly. Riding into another county is a different thing, but hey to each their own! I appreciate you responding to me baby, I love you!

It would be very romantic if we were able to kiss on a horse drawn carriage, especially if it was under the moonlight,and yeah not many people would be surprised to see them in this county,and they would all wave and say hello,but if we went into another county,people might try to run us over,and I was more than happy to respond to your discussion baby,and I hope you get a whole lot of good relevant responses,I love you to,have a great day,good luck in your life,and Happy Posting.

where i'm from it's called kalesa. I think of the Illustrados, or high society people of the mid1900s in the Philippines. They are a little taller than the natives, a little fair of skin, wearing European Style clothing trying to imitate what might be worn in Spain to add class or distinction. They're rocking along the rough pavement of tightly packed dirt or roads of cement, probably on a tour of the walled inner city in Manila called Intramuros or going from it to the University of Santo Tomas (St Thomas). They look out the window to find a bustling metro filled with brown skinned natives bartering with chinese or halfchinese vendors and the ocassional civil guard with their clean, crisp uniform and fearful authority or a random priest or being fawned over by pious old ladies. a poor old horseman wearing a straw hat against the tropical heat at the front end of the ornately designed cab gently guides the horse through the traffic making good time for the price of a few pesos that may just feed his children left at home after he pays the taxes or pay his debts and tributes to the church so that his son need not serve as a sacristan or that her only daughter doesn't need to leave home to serve a wealthy family that would treat her just like another piece of dirt or a fat imperious priest who would require something a bit more than he would like to think of. uhm, so that's my story of it.

Even though it's bnot quite the right style buggy I'm used to seeing, I think of the Amish people we see everyday on their way to the store or their relatives homes. I can picture the little faces of the children peeking out the back window.

That seems very charming! I do agree that that style buggy is really akin to a more professional style of horse and buggy. I appreciate your response, Have a Wonderful Lovely Day!
