Vintage Photography
I love looking at flickr.com and at photos people put on from their ancestors or finds at garage sales, rummage markets, or attics of old homes.
This person has found a treasure in several photos of the same couple.
Love the wedding photograph. I am not much of a mustache sort of person, but he has the handles going on here. Probably was a thinker and twist on the ends regularly.
You can tell from the following photograph that they have a little one on the way. Also, like most women, she has changed her hair some and now has bangs.
I wonder why way back then there were no smiles on the folks -- maybe they had not come up with the phrase -- "say cheese".
Maybe it might have been because of the torture of having to sit for a long period of time while the picture set.

Dear Sir or Madam
ReplyDeleteAs part of a graphic design project for The University of
Hertfordshire I made a collage using some of the Victorian images on your site
This project has been selected as a semifinalist for the student Adobe
Design Achievement Awards 2012. As this collage will now be shown in
public I need permission to use the images.
This is not for profit but merely to recognize student art.
Could you pass this request to whoever I need to ask for permission?
I am happy to forward a copy of the completed project for approval.
Many thanks
