When We Were Just 65

Yesterday, I showed you new edits of old photos, but when I found myself in my March 2012 folder, I liked what I had done then well enough back then, so this is just a memory post and not a re-editing. They were all taken on and around Sue's 65th birthday. I converted them to B&W back then, and I guess that is what grabbed my attention now.

This was Danica about two weeks before the birthday. She was in kindergarten and we would most likely have taken this before or after school while we were still babysitting over there.

We often go out a day or two before Sue's actual birthday. The sap was running in March, and we headed off to the sugar camp but not the one we usually visit. It was crowded on that day, and seated at a nearby table was a group of red hat ladies*. In the photo I kept the hats red but converted the rest to b&w. Come to think of it, I don't believe that I have some across red hat ladies* since then.

This is Danica at the actual birthday celebration. I was playing with a faux framing look but not to print it, just to experiment.

Finally, mother and daughter with a bit of anti-vignetting around the edges.
