Did you know that 85% to 90% of the 876,213 persons reported missing to America’s law enforcement agencies in 2000 were juveniles (persons under 18 years of age). That means that 2,100 times per day parents or primary care givers felt the disappearance was serious enough to call law enforcement. Thats in the US ONLY.


The number of missing persons reported to law enforcement has increased from 154, 341 in 1982 to 876,213 in 2006. That is an increase of 468%.

edit....I want to thank you ^shell4art for the dd and helping spread the word about Missing and Exploited Children. And thank you to all who have supported me and helped me learn so much about photography. I'm glad I have the opportunity to help make a difference with a simple photo.

Daily Deviation

Given 2007-10-09
Well, this one about did me in. Is it the message? The image? The darkness emphasizing the bleakness of the conceptual message? Well, for certain it's a smack between the eyes, a jarring from my complacent reality and something that needs to be hung on the wall for all to see. This artist's gallery has always intrigued me as I have enjoyed the many diverse expressions. DP has a way of taking things to another level.

That statistic is incredibly scary,what a powerful photo...:O_o:!! Is it just me,or do the bolts & fastenings on the swing make little faces? .....It's what caught my eye before I realized what the pic was about.....very good of you to raise awareness about such a distressing situation for the families involved.....
