My grandma! I don't know who the kid or the gentleman are.

My cousin sent me some negatives from the 1960s. I quickly rigged up an ad hoc scanner and converted the negatives to positives. I only recognize my cousin Dorothy (family nickname "Dabby) in these shots -- everyone else is a mystery to me.

My cousin sent me some negatives from the 1960s. I quickly rigged up an ad hoc scanner using a "Really Useful Box" (no lie!), used my phone as a light box, used my XBEAM camera to shoot the negs, put them on my #RaspberryPi, inverted them in #gimp, and HERE I AM in 1962, on the floor.

If the "expert" in your life agrees that you should keep original photos on your phone, you need to find a new "expert".

Self-host your most valuable files. Keep your originals on multiple hard drives - not your phone.

Excerpt from a BBC News article about people printing family photos after losing them to poor choices.

Highlighted is a section that claims (to which I disagree) that:

"Experts broadly agree you should keep three versions of your most treasured pictures: the original on your phone, one copy online, and one on a hard drive."

My little nephew has his 3rd birthday, today. He'll be coming over around 11am.
For some reason, I kept thinking he was turning 2 not 3. The kid's growing fast.

This is a pic of my grandmother at her home in Signal Hill (CA) about 1928. They had a number of oil derricks around their house. Yikes.

When I asked if we are building a big castle. No castles, he says! Natural born decolonization kiddo 💗

First day at preschool, yesterday. Rayven cried when his parents left. That will happen for awhile until he gets used to being at preschool for part of the weekdays.

Visit from my nephew, Rayven. He'll be 2, end of October. He picked some dandelions for Mom/his Grandma ❤️

🍦📷 Puddles, piggybacks, rooftop views, and an ice cream bribe — this High Line family shoot with a CA crew turned NYC into their playground. We splashed, skipped, and spun our way into joy, with two wild-hearted brothers leading the way: zorz.it/unrailed

My great-grandmother Julia as a young woman, probably around 1886-90. She was born in 1872. I love the clear signs that her waist have been altered to look slimmer.
