Description
At the Rest Home. Many of us will come to this, be prepared.
Ernie has the Distinguished Flying Medal, and loves to have control of the TV zapper. I think it must be the buttons.
As he was asleep the ones who were still awake were able to watch the tennis without a change of channel every 15 seconds !

Wonderful.
Awe an afternoon nap, delightful. x
pass the slow pills...
It's the best thing you can do when it's hot. Great capture!
When I saw the title I expected an image of the dogs. When Ernie was fighting the enemies of England I'm sure he never imagined he'd end his days piloting the remote. Most of us never do. This is a brilliant image, sweet and a little sad.
I have enough trouble getting any sleep in a bed let alone on a couch. As an insomniac, I have NEVER fallen asleep on a couch, in a bus etc! EVER!
great candid capture Andrea! I'm like Andrew - I have a very difficult time getting to sleep in my own bed, let alone anywhere else...
It is sad to say that we will all be in the future photos of this scene!
Superb capture Andrea. Sad and true words Andrea. God bless.
Klasse shot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
what an adorable scene !!! well seen and captured
Awww, bless their hearts. Touching photo. Maybe the dogs were cuddling with someone else who was awake at the moment.
Super capture Andrea :)
Marvelous depiction of our future....:)))
I love the B&W version! They look so comfy...
terrific capture of 3 people sleeping deeply, and of how we all become more and more like children as we get older. And it's also quite a shot, visually, with the different tilts of the head, and the deep absorption of their sleep. I also love the three pairs of feet: Ernie's wearing monk-straps; the middle woman is wearing, I assume, normal shoes; and the right-most woman has socks---and thick white socks at that! that alone makes this a most interesting shot. Needs to be seen full to get the impact of this delicate but powerful panorama. A wonderful capture of humanity---and the black and white has a much more gritty journalistic feel, because of the black and white. Amazing what color and its lack can do to change a shot...
I think tennis would do this to me too. But then again, I am not a sporty kind of person, never was. As I have not looked at a TV for well over ten or so years, it wouldn't bother me. God bless them.
I'm not sitting in a comfy chair when you are around.
I can relate. Plenty of emotion in this one. My thermometer registered a high of 124 degrees. That's not quite fair, because it sits on a piece of wood in a hole on a concrete block, and the sun hits it in the morning. But it was definitely hot.
