On May 25, 2011, Taylor Jones, a 22 year old resident of our city started a new blog on Tumblr called "Dear Photograph". His idea went viral and he has received worldwide recognition for his work and has signed a book deal. Do take a look at his blog as it is a very interesting blend of old and new photographs. Today I pulled some photo prints from an album and experimented with the concept. It was harder than it looked to line up an old picture in a current context.

I love the "Dear Photograph" site! Your additions to the idea look great, Ruth!
ReplyDeleteI had heard of this idea--and I love it. So interesting that you have photos that you can do this with them.
ReplyDeleteJust think, not too long from now, we won't have PHOTOS, only digital pictures. Which we can print, of course.
That's a really fun idea.
ReplyDeleteYou're a triple threat. Just now, I saw it on Flickr, FB and here. :)
ReplyDeleteIt's a great idea.
Thanks for your comments...it is a really interesting idea. AC- I have audiences all over the place but I forgot to tweet it, lol!
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing blog! It does look difficult to line up those pics. Yours are cool!
ReplyDeleteYou did an amazing job on the photographs. I should think it is very hard to stand in exactly the right position.
ReplyDeleteDear Photograph is a great idea to share memories.
ReplyDeleteWe count our years in dogs, too.
