Photo swap for Pam AKA blkcow

Mon, 18 Mar 2013 01:15:29 +0000

by: oldbag165

Description}: Pam entrusted me with a treasured family photo of her mother as a baby on her grandfather's lap. It was taken in 1921. Journaling on the post card: Thought you might like this picture of Baby Fanny Jane Hamilton with grandfather Fossie. (Why the children call Henry that I will never know.) Elizabeth and Mary Louise are on his left. And of course the cousins were here, too. That�s Helen Hamilton standing on the bench and Mary Johnson Hunt sitting by her. Haven�t they all grown? Can you (over)... Journaling on the banner: Mother, we asked, when was this photo taken? It had to have been between Memorial Day and Labor Day. How do you know, we asked? Because Fossie is wearing a white suit, white shoes and white hat. It must have been summer! Pam, thank you for this opportunity.

Description}: Journaling: Carl and I went to the agility field so that I could practice with my camera. Our teacher put him through his paces while I click, click, clicked away. I am determined to master freezing action. I shot these in shutter priority mode, with an ISO of 400, shutter speed 1/1000 and f/9.0. In hindsight, I probably could have lowered the ISO. Whatever the case, Carl and I both had fun playing.

Description}: Journaling: It turned out to be a very good thing that we celebrated Christmas with the family on Christmas Eve. Tuesday the 25th we had a late breakfast with everyone and then headed home, a 3 1/2 hour drive. For most of the way, the temperature hovered right at 33 degrees with a fine misty rain. Fifteen miles from home it dropped to 31 degrees and began to freeze. By the time we got to our driveway, the trees were glittering with a fine coating of ice, the grass was crunchy and ice was beginning to accumulate on parked cars. We called everyone to let them know we had arrived safely and settled in to watch the weather. (David and I approach this very differently - I look out the window and he gazes at the Oracle of The Weather Channel.) Within the hour the freezing rain had turned to snow. It was one of those beautiful wet snows where the flakes seem as big as golf balls. I am sure that most of the women in my town were in a panic: Christmas! Snow! Kroger is closed! No milk! No bread! Argggggh! Forget that almost every home was filled to bursting with left-overs. Those who live in the South understand. Snowfall or the threat of snow is a mandatory trip to the grocery store and we are anxious when we cannot fulfill the ritual. The snow continued throughout the evening. I took a series of pictures of the front yard. Notice the photo to the left showing the snow on the yard lights. Two hours later, I took the picture on the bottom. The snow was already deep enough that the lights on the yard stakes were covered. The heat melted the snow around each bulb creating the effect of luminaries outlining the driveway and yard. And the bushes glowed an eerie red where the net lights shone through the accumulating snow. In the backyard, our crepe myrtles slowly bent down under the weight until they were touching the deck. David - ever the optimist - wandered through the house mournfully predicting that we would have massive tree damage. After all, the Oracle of the Weather Channel had declared it to be true. And yet, it was so beautiful. I was mesmerized watching the thick flakes in the glow of the street light. A snow like this touches the child in me. I was ready to bundle up in my snow suit and go outside to play. Instead, I contented myself with the hourly foray out with the camera to document the event. It was the first time we had snow on Christmas Day since 1928. We the lucky ones. Our town did not lose power so we were snug and warm. In the morning, we woke to a brilliantly clear day and twelve inches of accumulation. Truly it was a winter wonderland.

Christmas Eve

Description}: This is the right side of the spread for Dec 24. Almost done. Journaling reads: Christmas Eve is the night to open presents from the family. Their Momma had put a bug or two in the rights ears so the nieces were pretty happy with their gifts. But my Dad.....well you can see from his face that he was not so sure about his. Unbeknownst to him, we had gotten him a new flat screen TV. But the only thing under the tree was a small box with some of the mounting hardware, batteries and some cables. So, he was puzzling over how to say �Thank you but I don�t have a clue what this is.� We let him stew a few minutes and then brought out the BIG box.

I laid low for a week to make my people relax their guard. But then I made a full fledged assault on the tree. Momma put an X pen around it and said something about flocking the pen and putting red bows on it next year (go figure). But I have still managed to rack up a pretty good score. Good thing I am ................... Adored

Description}: I have got to say, the Refine Edge in Photoshop is awesome - I was able to select that bird's tail feather. Who Hoo! This page is a lift of jcaruth910 wonderful page Holiday Shadowbox: http://www.designerdigitals.com/digital-scrapbooking/ideas/showphoto.php?photo=186668&cat=fav Journaling: In my family there was an iron clad rule about ornaments. Ornaments were supposed to hang, not lean up against the branches. (I am not sure exactly where this �rule� originated but it was certainly going full tilt in my grandmother�s house so it was not a new expectation.) The top of my artificial tree is rather tightly packed and it is hard to find enough of a drop for things to hang. So, I have many, many tiny little ornaments for that part of the tree.

Luckily, the strands that were woven in very close to the truck were still on so there was not a total dark hole in the decorations. These were the new strands too, so obviously they do not hold up well. I have used the clear mini-lights for about 30 years (not the same strands obviously but the same look) and I really do not like the clear LED lights. To me they look cold and unfriendly. The multi-colored LEDs are OK, I guess. I am slowly coming to grips with the idea that I may have to go for a new look next year, as it becomes increasingly more difficult to find the incandescent clear minis. Maybe I should go with the old German tradition and use real candles. Then again, there is probably a flaw or two in that idea.

Description}: Journaling: Betty and I met - of all things - through DesignerDigitals.com. For all the years of my growing up, we had virtually no contact with my maternal grandfather�s side of the family. I knew he had two sisters and six brothers but that was about the extent of it. I was able to find out quite a bit of information via the Internet but did not really have any people I could talk to about this side of my family. But all this was about to change in 2010. In December of that year, I got an interesting email from the webmaster. Apparently someone had contacted him asking for information about how to contact me. This person was named Betty Houston. One day she was researching her family and Googled her father. The first hit she got was a heritage page I had posted to the DD site. And she set out to find me. Betty indicated in her email to the webmaster that she had a photograph album that had belonged to her father that she would be interested in sharing. I followed up and contacted her immediately. And so began a correspondence that spanned the next year and a half. It turned out that Betty was my first cousin once removed. She was the only child of my grandfather�s oldest brother. Betty and I never met face to face. We had many email exchanges when Betty as able to get to the library as she did not have a computer at home. We also exchanged letters via snail mail. Betty had been an avid photographer in her younger days and had traveled extensively. She taught Spanish and drama at a high school in Toledo for many years. In the course of the conversations, Betty frequently mentioned the photo album, but she was not really ready to let go of it. Betty had many health problems. In the spring of 2012, I received a letter from her letting me know she would be moving to an assisted living facility.. At that time she did not have an address as she has not decided on which place she would go. I wrote two more times to her old address, hoping the mail had been forwarded but I received no reply. On December 17, 2012, I searched records on Ancestry.com and it was in this way that I discovered Betty had died in October. While I never got the photo album I got something even better - the chance to get to know this fascinating, funny, talented woman.

She was dancing the part of one of the Marzipans. David and I had discussed this and he had decided to stay in Conway with Carl. So, I made arrangements to spend the night with my brother and his family. Because I was spending the night, we decided to go to the evening performance. So, Saturday arrived and I was getting things ready to go. David mentioned that he might have changed his mind, but he was not decided. (His sister lives in Memphis and this was going to be the only opportunity to see her during the holidays because she would be visiting her son out-of-state over Christmas.) Since this was the first I had heard of this plan, I had not made arrangements to board the dog. I kept on with my preparations and he went back and forth - to go or not to go, that is the question. Finally I said, I am leaving in 15 minutes. If you are going, be ready. We had a very nice, uneventful drive to Memphis which is about 3 hours for us. David dropped me off at my brothers and went on to visit his sister as ballet is really not his thing. The ballet was a huge success. I had forgotten how fun the Nutcracker is. Chloe danced in the party scene, then was one of the mice and finally, her moment in the spotlight came as the three Marzipans danced. I am admittedly biased but I thought she was very good. It was also fun to see a production by a local company where the part of Clara was actually danced by a little girl. Professionals did dance the roles of the Sugar Plum Fairy and the Cavalier. Afterwards there was an opportunity for photos. But needless to say, by the time the performance was done, the photos, taken, and the �star� escorted home where she could finally have dinner, it was close to 10:00. David and I got back in the car and headed home. About the time we crossed the Arkansas River, the fog set in. We were able to average about 50 miles per hour on the trip home. It made for a very long day! So for my book purposes, the ballet pictures are also going to count as the pictures for the 16th of December too.

Journaling: For some reason, having all the decorations out, and having some of our normally dark rooms softly lit by the Christmas tree and garlands inspires me to get out the camera and try something creative. For me, that mainly involves taking the camera off auto and trying different shooting modes. Finally I was able to get the star burst effect around the lights in the tree. Thank God for digital cameras. There would be no way I could afford my learning curve if I was still shooting with traditional film. One thing I noticed as I was moving the tripod around the tree: it seems that there is a new dark spot. Yep. After a little exploring, I verify that some lights are out. Finding the problem bulb is impossible once the lights are woven into the tree. At least they are on the back side. This is one of the new strings though. That�s a little disconcerting.

Description}: Journaling: Eight days into the holiday season and I have to say, I was feeling pretty cocky. Other than dealing with Carl�s joys in de-decorating the trees our house was looking pretty good. And then on the 7th, I looked at our outside wreath that hangs over the garage. Now usually it is very festive with its strands of white, green and red mini-lights. But that night, it was suspiciously dark. All the red and green strands were burned out and 3/4 of the white strands had given up the ghost. So, on Saturday the 8th, down came the extension ladder, and out of the house came the long suffering husband. �It doesn't look too bad ,�says he (ever the eternal optimist.) I give him the look where one eyebrow disappears into the hairline. �All I need you to do is steady the ladder. I�ll do the rest,� I declare. And then discovered that of course I could not reach high enough to lift it over the nail. Thinking that he was hiding his snickers by turning his head, my sweetie brought it down for me. There was another moment of panic when he saw that I was using C7s for the red instead of the mini lights. �Don�t worry,� I assure him. It will be OK.

Description}: Credits are the same as the left side of the spread http://www.designerdigitals.com/digital-scrapbooking/ideas/showphoto.php?photo=186650 Journaling: This Christmas I got inspired to make a wreath for the front door. It has been many years since we decorated the entry to our home, probably because in the past we used lots of lights on the garland and it tended to throw the circuit breaker. (I can so identify with the Griswalds.) But I thought that a deco mesh wreath might do the trick. Now mind you, I have never made a deco mesh wreath before. The first challenge was to find appropriate color mesh. For some reason pink and purple seemed to be the primary options - colors that I do not associate with Christmas. Finally, five stores after I started, I hit the jackpot! Beautiful reds and greens and golds - and red picks - and a wreath frame with the ties already on it! (You know, with Carl around I think I may buy stock in a red pick company.) I was quite happy with the finished product.

Description}: Journaling: Psst! Remember me? Carl? The one sitting in front of the fireplace like a little angel? The one Mama bragged on yesterday? Guess what I figured out today? Those round glass things on the tree - you can pull them OFF! They will fit in my mouth (just barely) and if I move too fast - like when my people catch me with one - they have a bad tendency to fall out. They don�t do real well on the tile floor. Somehow they turn into a pile of little sharp things that are no fun any more. But hey - no problem. There are plenty more! And those glittery red picks... those are to die for. Little sparkly red Styrofoam balls covered with crunchy red stuff. When my people see me with one, I drop it real quick and run over and pick up my bone. �Look, everything�s cool. I am playing with my stuff.� Somehow they always know though. Think it could be the red glitter on my lips?

And so far, Carl had not bothered the ornaments. This was quite a change from last year when he was a veritable whirling, zooming canine angel of destruction visited upon the hapless tree. My 12 boxes of ornaments and decorations can be daunting and overwhelming if I bring them all in at one time. So, this year, I brought in one box, put everything in it in it�s place, took the box back to storage and brought in another one. It worked really well. So, now it was time to set up the tripod and begin the annual photo-documentation of my efforts. Little did I know that this was the last night that everything would be working!!!

Description}: Companion to http://www.designerdigitals.com/digital-scrapbooking/ideas/showphoto.php?photo=186591 Journaling: This little pagan and his twin hang on either side of the fireplace during the Christmas holiday. I believe his figure predates even the European Father Christmas� and harks back to the time of the Romans and the time of the Druids. Holly was used by ancient people to treat a variety of ills...gout, urinary infections and kidney stones to name a few. Images of the Roman god Saturn show him wearing the holly, his sacred plant and Romans exchanged boughs of holly at Saturnalias. Holly was also sacred to the Druids, the first society in known history to have worn sprigs of holly and mistletoe. Very likely, my little pagan represents the Holly King (rather than an old fashioned Santa). The Holly and the Oak were the twins �kings� of the Celtic sacred trees. Holly was the �Dark Twin� and ruled during the times of the waning light following the summer solstice while the oak ruled during the time the light began its ascent at the winter solstice. The Druid priests of yesteryear believed that holly, with its glossy, shiny prickly leaves of green adorned with red berries, remained green all year due to its magical properties. Many speculate the holly berries have given us our green and red colors of Christmas. As Christian replaced the old religions of the Romans and the Druids, and overlaid the old traditions and holidays with new, holly acquired a different symbolism. The red berries were said to represented the blood of Christ and the green, prickly leaves represented the crown of thorns. Early on it was used at doorways and windows to ward off persecution (a tradition that still recognized the magical powers of the plant). This practice was too closely related to the Druidic uses of the plant and was prohibited by an early Pope, who forbade any type of Christmas greenery as pagan. Today as we know, we combine the old symbol of the holly with another old symbol - the wreath. The circle or ring shape of the wreath is symbolic of eternity or eternal life, because the shape has no beginning or end.

Description}: After we got the hearth decorated we decided that we really needed a picture of Carl between Santa and the angel. The halo I put on Carl is a little misleading as this picture was taken right after her destroyed two glittery red picks.

Remember me? Carl? I haven�t done a page in awhile, but when I saw Mama doing these Christmas pages I just had to get in on the act. I told her that the fireplace just wasn't complete without the canine angel. Don�t you think this addition to the decor is just perfect? Daddy showed this picture to people at work and they all wanted to know who they got me to sit this long. He told them that he and Mama glued my butt to the floor. Mama was proud though, because really I stayed on a sit-stay long enough for her to get the shot.

Description}: Happily plugging away days late on this project! Journaling: David always begins Christmas with a stellar imitation of Scrooge. Bah, humbug doesn't really do it justice. But despite his best effort, the Spirit sneaks up on him. This year as he was dragged kicking and screaming by yours truly into Home Depot for lights, he spotted these two little trees. Quick as that, the Christmas Spirit struck. You know, he says, those would look really good by the fire place. A handful of red, sparkley picks later and here is the result.
