Ancient Photos revisited

[grandpawrichard]

I was going through our old photo albums today, scanning them and then took them into Photoshop to to see if I could bring them back to somewhat decent so that I can save them onto a DVD.

That got me in a dangerous mode    : I was thinking which means "working without any tools"  . That brings me to the thought of this thread.

I know you all have them, so let's see a few of old photos of yourself. I'll start off:

















and some ribbons I won with my old Minolta XD-5 35 mm film camera:



I double dog dare you to post them!

wow... ancient is right. I think my parents were still wetting their bed/couldn't tie their shoes/ride a bike/etc.. that far back.

cool idea but I'd be a kid...actually my avatar is a pic from the early 70's

I may need to go make them smaller my sister converted them from slides to a disc and the files are pretty huge...will add a few in a few

lets see will start with our babysitter...this outta be good then a pic of an old log cabin that was as close as I ever got to having a playhouse and then some pics of my sisters and me ...there are a couple people who have seen some of these

Believe it or not, we were on a float trip down the river and we fed ourselves by killing rabbits or what ever else we could shoot or catch on a rod and reel. Life was Great back then and much less complicated.

724wd, a couple minutes in Photoshop can really clean up old photos. Check these out.  Not perfect, but that's just a couple minutes of work.
