Looking Back | Throwback Thursday

Just in case you have not noticed, I have changed the date for my Technology/Technique posts. With everyone on social networks posting #TBT or “Throwback Thursday” photos, I wanted to join in on the fun. I have a huge library of photos from days past, and the collection keeps growing every week!

This will probably force me to look back on some older images, and hopefully see how I have improved, and grown as a photographer and blogger. I may go even further back and see where I have come from to help me see where I should be going. Does that sound too serious – I hope not! I have enjoyed looking at the older images of friends and family as they post to Facebook and Instagram, and I want to join in the fun.

I am so lucky to have so many photos that my parents made over the years from times before I was born to the present. In trying to work with these photos – where is the data? Overall, I am completely spoiled with the amount of data that you get from digital photography. The camera, aperture, the date, and sometimes the place where you take these photos are all a few clicks away. Comparatively, analog images turned into digital files have none of these. You have to examine each on their own and try to determine the relevant data by looking at the faces, the backgrounds, and asking people that were in the photos if they remember where they were taken. It’s a great start for a trip down memory lane.
