>> When we took pictures, we lined up by height, and I was ALWAYS last.
You mean, they made you stand in the back, behind the taller kids?
You have my permission to sue! :-)
To: vetsvette
We’d have to know the color of the photographer to help know just who has been insulted!

Good POINT!! Being at the end of the line in this case was seen as just like going to “the back of the bus”.

LOL! Those taller kids had to line up first in order to stand in the back. Maybe I’d better re-think this....
BUT...my dad always teased me about being so short. Maybe I’ll have to sue the government for allowing him to participate in raising me.
That’s it!
THERE’s my lottery!!!

Same thing happened to me! We need a lawyer to make it a clas-action lawsuit! Punitive damages for all school photographers!

That’s the spirit.
My parents taught me that if I studied and worked hard, I would /always/ be able to find someone to sue!

LOL!
In photography, lighting is king!
The school must have been paying the photographer by the hour.
(It takes time to set up lights and umbrellas and adjust them for group shots of people with widely varied skin tones)
If you get it right, its a beautiful “natural looking” photo.
If you get it wrong....

Just print the negatives, that should solve it.
Or develop the reversed negative which will reverse the order.

Classs photos were always arranged by height when I was a kid. It seemed the quickest and most efficient way to go.
But that was a long time ago...

In photography, lighting is king! In schools, hysterical, nonsensical racial politics are king.
Sometimes it can be delightful to see the Left trip over the landmines that they have painstakingly installed in the avenues of society.
