Old Family Photos 1

My oldest brother has begun digitalizing the old family photos he has been hoarding for decades and sending them out to the family.  I am loving the ones I've gotten thus far.   This one is of my mother, 'Gentle Annie', as a toddler, maybe around 1915 or 1916:

The Landscape Of My Left Palm

This started out as a photo of my left palm.

Here is how it looked after some photo editing:

And below is the original photo, before editing:

Eclipsed Sun, Setting

Here are some photos I took of the partially eclipsed sun, as it was setting.  It looks as if it is being sucked down into the small mountain.

When I Was A Zombie

I was playing around at www.photofunia.com, where you can easily do all sorts of cool stuff with photos of yourself or others.  I created these images of myself as a zombie.  I must say, I think I make a good zombie!

 

Henry Sweetly Snoozing

Here's Henry.  He is such a sweet fellow.  He has become a father figure for the new kitten BaBu (who is growing like a weed!)

Harvesting the Potatoes!

Here are photos of my two recent potato crops.  They are little guys, 'cause they only grew for a couple of months... I found some old sprouting spuds in the back of the fridge when I was moving out of my old house.  I thought, hey, why not stick them in dirt and see what happens, and lo and behold, now I've grown my first potatoes!  

Wonderful fun.  Next year I will do it again, with an earlier planting so they have time to grow to full size.  It is such fun digging them up - like digging for buried treasure!!

The first bunch I dug up, a couple of weeks ago:

And my second harvest, which I dug up yesterday:
