Wow. This is one of those that looks sooooo much better if you enlarge the view. Definitely loses something in the smaller size. This is me and two of my sisters and one of my brothers, taken in the days when we lived on a farm. I would guess the date to be about 1957. I've been trying to work with some of my old, tiny family photos from those days. Memories. Four more children were to follow in years to come. (I'm the one all the way to the right)

This is so beautiful and soft and really the effects give it that faraway days feel. It is so beautiful. You were all such dear looking little children. It makes me kind of sad. Where have all the days gone? You such a delightful little child. Such a delightful delicate memory to capture and your work on this is full of memory and I think melancholy and indeed, love.

I was the 4th one to follow after this was taken, if this was 1957 you all had 10 more years before my arrival. Frances you have been doing such a great job with all these old photos. I have a couple of old ones scanned but haven't figured out what to do with them yet.

This is incredible...I love the butterflies flying out of the photo....I just finshed a page a few days ago that looks so much better in large form too...funny how sometimes it doesn't translate in miniture the way we see it and then when the preview pops up we are like, "Heyyyy I know i did better than that!!!" lol This is simply beautiful tho...no matter what size, your work is incredible!

WOW! I've wanted to do a completely b+w page and toyed around with one but couldn't make it work. You, however did an awesome job. I think that it proves what an amazing artist you are that you can make such a masterpiece without the use of color. Kudos!!!
