Project underway:
I'm working currently to edit, properly title, and organize files from several hundred photos of my immediate family (no snaps of holidays, birthdays etc) and my historic family back into 19th century...(my grandfather's infancy ...he photographed San Francisco 06 earthquake). My family has always loved photography and I have their Kodak Autographic.
I spent intense months scanning the original prints and negs....many were very fine studio portraits from early 20th century...was surprised at images in several ancient candid 616 negatives.
And of course I am using my own negatives and digital files, tho the negs are more fun.
I made of these files about 10 years ago....now, looking again, I'm having great dreams and experiencing great warmth for my people...they all feel alive.
These may ALL be printed on 5X7 if I can afford the time (and many do look great at letter size and beyond), but they will all first be identified properly, organized and saved on hard drives and thumb drive/s if relatives that express interest I'm not optimistic about their interest, sadly, but I think this project may attract gallery interest and it's been very important to me.
What are YOU doing along this line? Suggestions? Thoughts?
