Shades Of The Departed

 

Information

Blog Name: Shades Of The Departed
Url: http://www.shadesofthedeparted.com
Language: English
Topics: photography, genealogy
Description: I have been collecting photographs for over twenty years. This blog will discuss that collection, the types of categories I've developed for that collection, and the types of photographs I collect. I will also share with you what I've learned or am learning about scanning, creating a database, analyzing and dating my collection, and anything else that strikes my fancy related to photography and my collection. I am fascinated by the clues left in the photographs I collect. Every picture is a miniature mystery and I love a mystery. My grandfather was a photographer who traveled with the famous Burton Holmes. I am fortunate to have original photographs by both men. When I was ten my grandfather gave me a camera as a birthday gift. It was evident that I did not inherit the "photographer gene." I have taken only one photograph in my entire life that I liked, but I know a good one when I see it. I am a great appreciator.
