Old and older still....

The photo above was taken two or three years ago...digital.
And this one was taken in 1997....it is almost painful to look at with the bright colors and the slightly blurred look.

Since I am still not getting out for any photo shoots other than a quick run through the strip pits, I am posting photos I have posted before, but most of you have not seen them.

I am linking to Friday's Fences...

I love the fence and the tulips. I can't wait for mine to be blooming again. I need to look at my old photos, I'm sure the count is in the thousands :0

Elizabeth Edwards said...

hey, i love the color in that photo. i might be considered weird but makes me happy. great shots. (:

The first is lovely with it's curved shape. The tulips soften the iron and it makes for a lovely shot!
I like the wooden fence in the second one and all the leaves on the ground down in front of the house.

Kathy said...

I love tulips and I love wrought iron fences so when they appear like this together, they're an unbeatable combination!

It's amazing how technology has changed everything!

Lesley said...

The one with the tulips is my favourite. I like how the wrought iron even sort of mimics the tulip shape.

When you said "old," I thought you were talking about the fence, which appears to be something out of the early 20th century!

I LOVE the second picture, it is not painful to look at. And the first picture, now I have to start looking for wrought iron fences!!

Ebie said...

Hi Rose, I love the curves of the wrought iron fence. Nice!

Unknown said...

It's great to see old photos, I love them both, the first one for the old fence and the contrast of the tulips and the second one for a great Autumn shot with great leading lines.

Linda said...

I loved the colors in the 2nd one too! The curve and style of the first one is very nice, I don't think I have seen many curved like that! Love the combination of the flowers with the fence. Nice capture!

Love the flowers through the fence and the Fall trees are spectacular!

MadSnapper said...

that is a super duper wrought iron fence and the flowers make it even better. beautiful shot. ha ha on the painful photo. make me laugh

Dianne said...

wrought iron is so pretty

I like your "painful" shot, the trees are lovely

Faye said...

First, I love your new blog header--where is this? Actually, both old and new photos are fine with me. Today both your versions have their own charms. In the second photo the colors are almost painterly.

I like the out-of-season pictures too! :-) I resort to the archives frequently on the dull, overcast days that seem to defy making good pictures.

I love the two fences. The background view is awesome!

Keep on sharing the older ones. They are so nice. How time passes and how things change over that period tof time.That tree was gorgeous. genie

Two nice photos! Digital has certainly changed our perception of how our photos should look. Now you can take hundreds of photos of the same thing and be happy if you get a few to turn out. With film you just couldn't do that. And of course you had to wait for the film to be developed to see what you got. Now you can take a look right away and if you don't like it go take more. We have definitely become spoiled!

Nice photos, I especially like the first one.

Regards and best wishes

Susan said...

Love the photos, isn't it amazing how much better camera's are now!

EG CameraGirl said...

I agree that the second photo is a bit bright. I think photography has come a long way! :)
