Such a sweet little boy; I don't think he's up to anything bad. Those who are, hardly tell.

GOING FOR THE RED

“If forced to make choices,” she said,
“I’d go for the crimson and red.
I’d let go of green,
(Some think it’s obscene),
Embracing magenta instead.”

Sepia Saturday: Photochrome

Image
A little color, 1890s style, from around the world. Women of the Caucacus - Library of Congress Collection LC-DIG-ppmsc -03930 Traveling by Reindeer, Archangel, Russia - Library of Congress Collection - hdl.loc.gov/loc.pnp/ppmsc.03931 Distinguished Moorish Women, Algiers - Library of Congress Collection (LC-DIG-ppmsc-05553) Photochrome prints are  colorized  images produced from black and white photo negatives that are directly transferred onto lithographic printing plates. The process was invented in the 1880s by Hans Jakob Schmid (1856 - 1924). It was popular in the 1890s, when color photography was in existence but still commercially impractical. Sepia Saturday.

Sepia Saturday: Revisiting the Past

I don't think I've ever done a Sepia Saturday using my own pictures, but here goes. I see myself as a somber four-year old and wonder, "What is that little girl thinking?" My eyes seem to hold too much knowledge and wisdom for someone who'd been such a short time on earth, this time around at least. I see myself as a seemingly confident about-to-be high school senior, a cheerleader, a school leader, involved in a multitude of activities, practicing at love and chomping at the bit to go to college and have more freedom (albeit with my parents footing the bill). Now I look at her, her youthful exuberance so plainly showing, and I wonder, "If she knew then what I know now, would she have made choices differently?" Would she still believe in happy endings, that one man could be  the love of a lifetime? Would she have been more cautious in giving her heart, less willing to elevate other people's needs above her own? There are no do-overs, ...

Sepia Saturday: Happy Birthday

Perhaps I should say "Happy Belated Birthday" because the anniversary of Susan B. Anthony's birth was yesterday. She was born February 15, 1820 in Adams, Massachusetts to Daniel and Lucy Read Anthony,  both of whom were Quakers with an activist bent. Though many girls were poorly educated in that era, Daniel Anthony was an ardent supporter of quality education for both boys and girls, so the four girls in the family were as well-educated as their brothers. As an adult, Susan Brownell Anthony dedicated her life to the woman suffrage issue. Though she died on March 13, 1906 without having secured the passage of a constitutional amendment securing voting rights for women, others carried on the quest. The 19th amendment was passed in 1920. Does it amaze you that women have had voting rights for less than 100 years in the United States? That women were considered less than too emotional to make rational decisions...
