I was looking through my late mother's old photo albums at my sister's house, and found a treasure trove of old family pictures that I have never seen before. Almost immediately, to preserve the memories, I began to digitize some of the old photos for restoration.
If there was a picture that would bring back great memories and encapsulate the essence of my childhood, it would be this image.
This picture is the epitome of my childhood growing up as a kid, when everything was seemingly perfect. In my opinion, and in my personal experience, the late 1950's was the greatest time to be a kid.
I was around 4 years old when this picture was taken. This photo evokes in me a sense of calm and feelings of nostalgia; and transports me back to the best, simple carefree days of my life.
Which is why I love photography so much, old family photos in particular. The power of photographs lies in their ability to transport us back in time, evoking memories and emotions that might have otherwise faded.
