Oldies

I was doing some housecleaning tasks on the website the other day and got to looking at some old galleries from years ago. There were a few old favorite pictures that I hadn’t seen in a long time and I went back and dug up the old files for them and re-edited a few at a larger screen size. It’s funny how small pixel-wise some of the original pictures were. There were a couple that were shot on a 2.7 megapixel camera – and heck, we were happy to have even that back then! I know it really wasn’t that long ago, about six or seven years, but it sure seems like it was ages. And looking at these pictures I get that feeling of, “Oh, to be that young again…” The years pass and where do they go? Time in a bottle, that winding road, blah blah blah.

Anyway, it was fun to see these old pics and to see them re-done in Photoshop and looking about as good as they’re probably ever going to look. That last one, by the way, was only from last year, but it just struck me as a neat picture with nice lighting, so I removed an extension cord on the garage floor with Photoshop to make it a little better.

  1. HI Sandra. You look just gorgeous on these old photos. I wish you a merry christmas – and thanks for lots of great experiences in 2009, keep up your extraordinary good work in 2010. Michael

  2. Christmas is a nice time to look back before carrying on. Enjoy the break Sandra. I hope you, family and friends have terrific holidays, and a happy new year!

    ps – you still look great, but dammit you have the complexion of a teenager in that first shot. Not fair!

  3. Thanks, everyone, for the nice comments! And yes, I agree, Petra, the holidays are a great time to reflect. Heck, I do that way too much anyway and get really bad at the end of the year. There’ll probably be a couple more melancholy posts between now and January ;-) “Auld Lang Syne” always kills me!

  4. O, and another thing. The new blog look is superb. If I was a less generous girl you would just make me angry. Great legs and a finely tuned aesthetic sense …. its just not fair!

    :) ‘s + hugs – Petra
