Returning your visit to my blog on reveal day. Those are some beautiful photos. My mother in law has a large number of glass slides from her family that are of the same era. The look back in history is always fascinating. I look forward to seeing you photos through April.

Hey, Sue, this is awesome. I love my old family photos - some are amazing and fortunately my cousin has the photographiic knowhow to reproduce photos from my grandfather's glass plates! Family gatherings from the 1900s!

Sue, this sounds fantastic! Fiction is always a favorite, but using vintage photos as prompts--that's got to spark the greatest stories :) I'll be coming back often.

ReplyDeleteI'm a history fan, and a very visual person. I love seeing the old photos of what something used to look like and what it looks like now. I also especially love old portraits. I'm excited about this!
