Yes, photos are amazing...the stories behind them. I once had a book that had reproductions of letters that were sent by soldiers to their parents during WWI & WWII. They were fascinating, at the same time very sad.
That would be fascinating and sad. I lived in a house once where, in the shed we were about to tear down, we found a bundle of WWII-era letters. I think as a writer, it would be fun to work up short stories based on these photos. Thanks for visiting, Kim!
Very neat! I think these are fun for character writing exercises. :)
I love old pictures. How lovely.
Melissa, I think so too. I keep thinking about your affirmation jars. Maybe for the writing prompt ones there could, at times, be tiny photos. It is easy to print "contact sheets" of photos on one's computer. See what you've begun!
Glynis... I am so happy that you "get" just why these photos spoke to me. We have a store here in Athens, Ohio, called "Athens Underground" (it's in a basement on our main street). In it are tons of boxes of ephemera and old photos, as well as vintage clothes, jewelry, and purses. I may have to take some time on Saturday to stop in there now that I've been encouraged with these photos!
