Sepia Saturday for the 24th and 31 are combined in December 2022.
So I choose to post on the latter date. And there are a lot of Christmas and winter photos to share.
That's my mantra for life.
1916 photo of fishing vessle New England in British Columbia, by German born Canadian photographer Leonard Frank.
A Victorian snow woman, created by Victorian women in 1891, published in The Strand in 1892.
Sharng with my Sepia Saturday friends, bloggers across the miles.
...your mantra for life is spot on!
ReplyDeleteThanks. It's a good reminder...often lost in thoughts of other things.
DeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteMy mantra is much the same as yours. Wonderful collection of Sepia photos.
I wish you and yours all the best in 2023, a happy and healthy New Year!
Happy New Year Eileen...may it be wonderful and full of critters for you!
DeleteThe snow woman is quite a surprise.
ReplyDeleteShe is pretty amazing...well rendered!
DeleteA wonderful mantra and the snow woman is quite equisite.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment.
DeleteLove that fishing boat photo. How cool that it was called New England, taken in BC, by a German-Canadian. With all of that ice, I do wonder if the BC part is correct bc they look more like eastern seaboard conditions. Just noting that in passing, not really questioning and don't care really.
ReplyDeleteI wish you a Happy New Year although it may suit better tomorrow.
Ha ha, I'll take good wishes any day! Last day of the year! Whoohoo! Yes that's pretty severe ice for west coast weather.
DeleteHmm, posted a comment and it disappeared! Ah well. Love all of these, especially the snow woman. Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteGlad you came back to see if I'd replied! Don't know what happened...but some comments don't come up at all, and I try to skim through them and make sure they all are given their place. Thanks for the good wishes...and the same to you and your family!
DeleteOh, I love the snow lady!
ReplyDeleteIsn't she a treat!
DeleteAnother nice medley to end the year. I'm struck by the three sisters(?) from Texas. All three have a sad, even mournful expression as if they have lost a family member. Sadly too many people in the world have experienced such personal tragedy in 2022. Let us hope 2023 brings more hope for peace. Keep well.
ReplyDeleteWow! Barbara, these are amazing! It's really sweet to see some of the action photos, like the wagons and horses rolling by. Is "Deadwood" a town, or is it describing the logs on the side? Also, I love those two wee babes decorating the tree. By the way, I have Czech/ Moravian ancestors who moved from there to Texas. Hm, wonder if they're related? Thank you for your beautiful work here!
