Mystery Slides

More clearing at my Mum's house today. I found boxes of slides but don't have a projector. The light box was Mum's and came in handy. I took photos and enlarged them in the hope I would recognise the people in the photos. But I have no idea who they are. The features are not clear and the settings are not ones I recognise. The atmosphere of the pictures seems strange to me. Partly the lack of recognition, and partly the snow and loneliness of some of the shots of the children. 




 Who are you mystery people from the past?

Interesting! I'm dying to see them larger. Snappy Snaps will scan slides if you don't mind spending a little money on them.

Oh I didn't know that. Thanks I will give it a try! It may be disappointing though as they may be just as blurry when enlarged! I wish I knew how to develop photos myself. My Dad used to do that so I should ask him.

These are amazing---evocative... My favorite is the woman walking into the picture, carrying a handbag? while two people stand still in the center---a sense of time frozen.
Snap.
That's it.
