My grandparents had four of those beds and plenty of handmade quilts. Did the bed sleep well, or did you sink into it and ride around atop box springs? :-)
Do you have this in another album. It looks familiar, even with the rosin. You can imagine I'd like this, considering the post I made a couple minutes ago about cutting my teeth on great, classical violinst vinyl platters.
You probably already know this, so please accept this because I'd hate for you to have regrets. Do not play these albums more than once with a good needle on a turntable for the sake of making digital copies. You can dupe CDs over the years as they wear out. But every trip the needle makes through the grooves of the albums will erode the delicate etchings that define the sound. Oh, keep them away from teething babies. My dad took a hit when he found me cutting teeth on his Isaac Stern, Fritz Kreisler, Yasha Heifetz and other classical violin and orchestra albums. :-)
Wanda, this Upstate NY folder was a great pleasure for me to ride through. That part of the state is not only gorgeous in natural design, but the farms are of picture book beauty. Dad grew up not too far from Schenectady and worked in the GE plant there during WWII. You bring vitality and art form with your passion.
Kudos to you for once again rendering the path/road/in-this-case rails gently moving from the left, across the vertical center. (I'm a Rule of Thirds-aholic and you've got me drinking it in.)
You did well channeling the viewer's eye down the wall and over the floor to the small portion of the image where the activity is. Powerful composition, Wanda.
Please wait...
