If I didn't know where this photo was taken and who took it, namely an SS officer, I would think it was a moment of rest after mass in the open countryside, where after a pilgrimage people sit down and have a bite to eat before returning home and taking a photo as a souvenir. As I used to do when I was little with our parish. In the frame of this photo, there is a child who has found a dandelion in the grass and is now giving it to or showing it to an older child, perhaps a brother. A few minutes later, ALL THE PEOPLE PORTRAYED HERE WERE SENT TO THE GAS CHAMBERS, and all that remains of these Hungarian Jews is this photo, boys, girls, men, women, young people, and this small spontaneous gesture, then screams, cries, and SILENCE.

In the wild these are taken by the wind and spread around so they can grow. Another name for this is Chinese lettuce, they take the leaves from the plant and either smoke it to get high or use it as a tea to drink for its relaxation properties.
