REMINISCING

Digging thru the archives I found some favorite images that evoked memories. I hope you'll find this hodgepodge interesting. The baby is my great-grandson. It was a thrill to have a close encounter with the Galapagos Tortoise. I joined the Marine Corps in 1943; this is me and the Marine I replaced. I'm always happy to get your comments and learn from criticism.

Some very interesting and varied photographs of your passage through life.
I particularly like the first two, the flowers and frozen leaf with the ladies
showing through, very creative.
The Galapagos Tortoise catches the eye with its size, although I assume
you did not take this one, as you are in the picture.
The Black and White photograph, with a hint of sepia tone has good definition.
The last photograph I again assume that is you in the tree, has excellent colour
rendering for what I take it to be film.
All in all a great set of photographs.
Thank you for posting.

Great assortment. In 1943, I still had to wait a year to be born!

Thank you for checking these out and leaving the interesting comments, Leicaflex! Your assumption is correct. I was with a tour group and everyone was shooting
everyone. That IS me posing in one of the giant pieces of driftwood that's scattered on Rialto Beach in Washington State,Olympic National Park. The impressive display
of driftwood was awesome. I appreciate your extensive observations!

So you're a Marine, Annie! Good for you! I thank you for your service! Our son recently retired from the Navy after 20 years. He's a Corpsman and Senior Chief! I love all these photos, Annie! The first one's so pretty!

Hi Sue,
Quite some time ago you told me about your son's experiences in the Navy. Thank him for serving our country for 20 years!
I'm glad you enjoyed these images. The first one is of my niece Marcie superimposed on a Queen Anne's Lace.
I appreciate your comments on my post.
