Have you seen this toddler
Due to an offensive comment recieved yesterday I have decided to close the comments for this entry.
This is a photoblog entry with a difference, and one I hope fellow photobloggers may take up. The reason I feel this should happen is because as bloggers and even more importantly photo bloggers we attract views on a daily basis from all around the world, which is exactly what the Mc Cann family need right now.
For those that are unaware of the story, I have taken this quote from True Crime Blog UK, where it was first posted.
Kate and Gerry McCann from Leicestershire took their 4-year-old daughter Madeleine (pictured) with them on holiday to Portugal. The family were staying at the Mark Warner Ocean Club Summer Beach Resort in Praia da Luz on the Algarve.
On the 3rd May 2007 Kate and Gerry went for a meal at a tapas restaurant, checking on Madeleine in their nearby apartment every half hour or so. When they returned at around 9:45pm GMT, a window was open and Madeleine was gone. Staff and guests searched the holiday complex into the early hours of the morning, but failed to find the missing toddler.
So 2 weeks on nothing more has really come from the police investigation in Portugal, or at least under Portuguese law they cannot disclose much, so the family have appealed for people to spread the word across the globe. One of the other reasons why photoblogs may be of help is due to the fact that, if she was abducted, one thing the abductor would be unable to change would be Madeleines distinctive right eye, where the pupil runs into the blue-green iris.

It is this distinguishing mark that will identify Madeleine to those on the lookout for her, according to aunt and uncle John and Diane McCann.

I am not going to post any photos over the weekend possibly even longer to ensure that people visiting see this message, and if you are a fellow photoblogger or blogger of any description, I urge you to please post something like I have to get the message out there (I do know pleanty have already), I fluctuate between 58 and 68 readers but I do know some of the people visiting attract a much larger readership, well into the hundreds, you are the people this family need at the moment for help.
