Memories,

collages and self portraits, maybe

 I have taken few self-portraits, except some occasional ones. But after reading what Batsceba wrote, it inspired me to do something I've wanted to do for a long time.

I looked for a photo of my parents with me in my mother's arms. Mom was 21 years old and Dad was 22 and I was maybe a month or less (1946).

I didn't find the original photo, but I did find one that I had taken of that photo with my cell phone. I printed it out and took it today to the same window of the building where we lived. That photo was taken by Mom's younger sister, who was 15 years old at that time, with a square Kodak (which I played with as a child).

Places I love come back to me like music— Sara Teasdale

 

Last year I asked my wife to take one for me next to that window but maybe I should go myself with the tripod…
