It may be work, it may be play, it may be near, it may be away. So here is the challenge - to shoot and post one photograph a day on this site. These photographs are a kind of diary of things I find interesting. I am also thinking that there will be days when I am unable to shoot, so on those infrequent occasions, I will post a photograph done on another day, but one that still feels important to me. - Ken Spencer

My Sisters, circa 1956
Please bear with me here - these photographs of Joan, Betsey, and Karen were unearthed with the transparency of the oyster boats from yesterday. I am mainly posting these images to surprise my sisters! They have no idea - I can't wait to hear of their surprise when they find themselves here in the morning. It makes me smile to think about it. I have no recollection of taking these pictures. But when I was a photographer as a kid, I photographed everything. These are color transparencies that have been scanned to make digital images. I love how cute and how beautiful they all are. I was absolutely blown away to find these. Another family treasure!
Fabulous! They are all so cute. Better keep your printer on. I am sure 3 prints will be requested. You are amazing Ken!
ReplyDeleteWOW! I don't remember you taking this but I do remember the dress I was wearing like it was yesterday. Pink & black checkered bottom. Thanks for the surprise.

I love these photos! you had the eye right from the beginning. What great family treasures!
ReplyDeleteI don't remember this either. We had this older brother who would take pictures anytime, anywhere...
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you took this one! I definitely want a copy of this. Can't wait to see what other gems are tucked away...bsk
What a wonderful surprise. You were always snapping shots and have a great eye! I would love prints. We just need a self portrait of you in 1956 to complete the treasure.

I LOVE this montage Uncle Ken! I can't believe how much my mom looks like Jonathan, and Karen like Kelsey!
