Isn’t this photo of my 2nd great-grandparents beautiful?
❤️❤️❤️
It was in a small bundle of negatives my Mom left with me a few years ago. I recently scanned it and was so delighted by the clarity of the image. It’s not the original negative. I believe it is a negative created by my great-grandfather, the son of this couple, by taking a photo of the original photo. When I first worked with this image I was so happy to see a better version of a photo I already had. But when I tried to find the “other” version I realized it was actually a different shot from the same photo shoot. This is the photo I had before:
Both are lovely. But I am so happy with this new photo!
I spent a little time cleaning it up. Here is the original scan of the negative:
Happy Thursday, I hope you make a fantastic photo discovery this week! xoxo
ps – I was scheduled to have cataract surgery today but it was moved to next week. I’m nervous and excited. Here’s hoping it goes well! (I’m a big fat chicken, so it’s probably going to take A LOT of deep breaths for me to make it to the actual moment of surgery.)
