This photo expresses some happiness. When you look at them they are all smiling and together. They can do anything they want to now that they are free once again. They are probebly all family and friends. They look very in tune with each other. The novel is really never this happy but I would assume that Elie would be releived that he made it, going through everything that they did, but even though he had no one with him it's still a good thing.
