I honestly do not if the couple in the photograph are going on a picnic. But I love the big picnic basket the gentleman is holding. They are in dress clothes. The couple may be attending a church social or reunion.
I do not have any details of this image.
What do you think?
Until next time…peace
I just love this photo. My curious side wishes I had more information. The image was part of an estate sale which did not have any details on the photos.
I cleaned the photo up to the best of my abilities. Do you think this was a car club? Church? Revival meeting? Reunion? I have so many guesses but no answers.
Let me know what you think!
Until next time…peace
The image was part of an estate sale. Written in faded pencil, the only identifying mark on the photo is the name, “Tillie” which is on the front of the print.
I would like to believe that is her name. She is sitting perfectly in front of the window. The image is definitely a studio print. But I do not have any further information.
The lady sitting by the window is adorned with a captivating piece of jewelry, delicately hanging from her neck. Its color, like a hidden secret, remains elusive. Perhaps it was a necklace, or maybe a mysterious locket.
I also noticed a ring gracing her left hand, but its significance remains yet a mystery like the entire image. Was it a symbol of love, a token of commitment, or something else entirely? Like many of the images I view, I am left with more questions than answers.
What do you see when you view the image?
Until next time…peace
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.
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.
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
At the end of June, the Canadian Wildfires pushed smoke downward through our area. One of the mornings had light fog as well. The result was an eerie effect on the mid-Michigan landscape. I took numerous photos, but I liked this one the best.
While the smoke/fog combination creates a thick layer, the Sandhill Cranes are grazing in a local field. I am both fascinated and heartbroken by the wildfire smoke reaching our area.
My curious side wants to know all about the effects of the Canadian wildfires on areas so far away. But the part of me that loves wildlife and nature weeps for the damage. Yet, I know Mother Earth will continue to heal and provide.
Until next time…peace
Let’s take a moment to honor those brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country.
The flag in the photo is on a work site. They are putting windmills up in my area. I snapped this image on a weekend.
Until next time….peace
As many of you know, today, March 20, 2023 is the first day of spring. But, today is also World Frog Day.
I love frogs. I mean they eat bugs. But I also love listening to them late at night. Of course, right now in mid-Michigan we are still experiencing cold, snowy weather. Today, the wind is making everything feel extra cold.
Hopefully, soon I can open up the windows to listen to the frogs singing all night.
Until next time… peace
I won this photo in an online auction. I do not have any information about the team, school, or players. The photo did not seem to match any of the others in the lot.
The photo of the basketball team does have identifying marks.
The front reads, Basketball 1938 & Waubay, S.D. underneath. The lefthand corner indicates the photo was taken by O’Neil Photo Company.
I believe this is a high school team. But I could be wrong.
What do you think?
Until next time…peace
