What a wonderful photo telling a story! Memories of reading books I could not put down! I can remember my parents telling me to “put that book down!” And
“Get your nose out of that book!” Not sure I read walking down stairs though! 🤪
oh, if we could only talk to this people, n'est-ce pas? i'd like to know what they were thinking as the photograph was being taken. lovely processing, it feels like a dream. aces!
@craftymeg Who? Someone who might never had seen the light of day again had I not featured her! I binged on buying OPs cast off photo albums through eBay, and have used them in art projects in any number of ways I have my own ancestor photos, but I'm always looking for something that strikes me as "unique"; I wanted something to pair with the quote.
Very nice old photo, but why is that girl reading on the stairs? While walking, I can only read a newspaper. The book requires concentration and solitude, even in a crowd.
@haskar Isn't that the fun of looking at old photos?! We have no idea what the story was, but we can make up our own. Maybe she was waiting for her ride to school...
Interesting edit. It's easy to fall down the rabbit hole isn't it. And if I tried reading in bed I'd be asleep inside 5 minutes. Same thing happens on the couch come to think of it.
