The spooky season is officially here. I love October. The cooler weather and changing leaves are perfect for photography.
I was out photographing spiderwebs in the fog. Yes, I know, I’m a little odd. I found the spiderwebs beautiful.
I took this photo down at the wildlife area. To me, the dew-covered spiderwebs look like Mother Nature is decorating for Halloween early.
I hope everyone has a fantastic month.
Until next time…peace.
This image was from an estate lot. In my opinion, they are playing horseshoes. I imagine this is a family gathering or perhaps a reunion in a park.
I am guessing the image is from the early 1950s. I base this on the type of image and the style of clothing.
The person sitting on the log is either watching the game closely or bored.
What do you think?
Until next time…peace
I took a backroad home from town. I was driving slowly. I knew I had seen something in the ditch. So, I stopped my car to look. My dad was with me. We kept searching but didn’t see anything at first.
Then, this crane’s head popped up just above the ditch line. I think he was telling me, “Yes, you saw me, now go on your way.” He did not seemed bothered by our presence. Other than the fact, that we were disturbing his food search.
Until next time…peace
The photo is a digital copy of an old slide. I purchased a large lot through an auction. I have slowly been going through them.
This slide did not have any information. However, some of the other slides mention Hawaii. I am assuming this photo was taken there. What do you think?
Do you think it looks like Hawaii? Let me know in the comments.
Until next time…peace
Did you have a fun-filled Labor Day weekend? I stuck close to home. I worked on photos, writing, and housework. I know, an odd combination.
I did go for a ride. I came across these beautiful Turkey Vultures. The one kept opening his (or her) wings. I believe the bird was trying to soak up the sun.
I am fascinated with these birds. My mom use to love them. She said, they were so ugly, they were beautiful. Of course, I find everything in nature has a touch of beauty.
Well, have a good night.
Until next time…peace
Happy September 1st everyone! Where did our summer go?
I am still working on the slides I purchased from an auction. I really like this slide. Everyone seems to be happy. I wonder if they were traveling together. Or perhaps, one couple was traveling to meet up with the others. I just wish I had names for the people in the image.
Have a great month!
Until next time…peace
I enlarged this photo to view the license plate on the back of the truck which reads South Dakota 50 or 1950. The image does not have any identifying marks.
The older boy is sitting on a new bike. I wonder if the bicycle was a gift for a birthday.
The image is typical life at this time. I see a small flower garden to the right. There are clothes hanging on the line to the back left of the photo.
The younger boy’s pants are clearly too large, indicating second-hand clothes or hand-me-downs from his older brother.
What do you see when you look at the image?
Until next time…peace
The writing on the back of the photo is not about the couple but the photographer.
It reads: “Mr. Hogan took this – he is minus one eye and one arm – yet drove to New York and looks good.”
Now, I just need to know about the couple.
Until next time…peace
On the back of this photo, a little information is written out in faded ink: “Mother’s Ivy Plant” and “1952”. When I first saw this image, I thought the title should be “Stay out of my kitchen”.
I love the old-style kitchen. The glass bottles bring back childhood memories. We had Neigh-Hi but I do not know if we ever had Hub City.
When you look at this photo, what do you see?
Until next time…peace
Like many of the photos I purchase, there are no identifying marks. I assume the image is from a family gathering, but personally, I cannot tell if the family photo depicts a group of siblings or a mother and father with their children.
When you look at the photo, what do you see?
Until next time…peace
