Beautifully done Priscilla. Loved the use of sepia for these
Thanks, Tina. I don’t have a sepia setting, just monochrome. A few of them are actually color; old wood looks gray.
Beautiful nostalgic memories and images. 🙂
Thanks, Amy! Many of them were taken at a living history museum where I worked called Old World Wisconsin.
Excellent. Monochrome is perfect for nostalgia. Love the old house and the fence.
Thanks, John. That’s part of a living history museum in Wisconsin. Definitely nostalgic for that place where I worked 3 years as a costumed interpreter.
Wow. Good for you. I admire my docent friends for that contribution.
Just wonderful exhibition, and then I saw this Faulkner quote from Light in August that I have memorised too, and used in an essay in my university days and I remember how I continued it:
“‘Memory believes before knowing remembers.’ Memory will forgive and forget.”
