3 Brothers?

I am guessing these three men are brothers. I do not have any information on this old photo. There is not anything written or stamped on the back.

The image contains a barn in the background. I assume they are in a farming community. I would guess the photo was taken in the mid-to-late 1940s from the style of clothing.

There is also a young boy peeking around the corner on the porch. Perhaps one of the gentlemen is his father. He just wanted to see what was going on.

Tell me what you think when you look at the photo.

Until next time…peace.

Just a Girl and Her Baby Doll 1944

This image was part of an estate sale purchase. Unfortunately, I do not have any information on the name of the little girl or the exact location of the photo.

The photo does have a date and printing service stamp.

March 24, 1944

Brown Photo Service

Minneapolis, Minn.

There’s snow in the background of the photo. I assume the photo was taken in the spring. Perhaps around Easter, the girl and her baby doll appear to be dressed up. Maybe they were heading out to church or dinner.

What do you see when you look at the image?

Until next time…peace

Father & Sons 1944

This image was part of an estate sale. Unfortunately, I do not have any names or an exact location for this photo.

The image is stamped on the back with Brown Photo Service, Minneapolis, Minn., May 4, 1944.

I think the image is of a father with his two sons. Of course, one of his sons is in the military. The other one appears too young for the service.

The date stamp lets me know the photo was taken during WWII. I assume the military man was either home on leave or just entering his military service.

What is your opinion? What do you see when you look at the image? I would love to know the real story behind the photo. I also wonder if the young man came home safe after the war.

Until next time…peace.

Nature’s Beauty in a Cemetery

I was out and about the other day. Technically, I was searching for bears. Yes, bears. There have been reports of bears in the area. In fact, one gentleman I chatted with informed me that there are actually about 40 in our county. I am going to have to do some research to verify the information.

When I was riding around, I did not come across any bears to photograph (don’t worry, I have a nice long lens to photograph a bear). However, I did discover this beautiful bee’s nest in a cemetery. I have never seen a bee’s nest attached to a cemetery stone before. I really enjoyed photographing the nest.

Nature’s beauty always fascinates me.

Until next time…peace.

Morning Fog

We had a foggy start to our holiday weekend here in the mid-Michigan area today. The sun, shining through the morning fog, gave a yellowish tint to the landscape.

Personally, I found the effect beautiful. I cannot believe September is here already. The upcoming autumn season is my favorite time of the year.

I hope everyone has a wonderful and safe Labor Day weekend.

Until next time…peace
