Hello everyone!

     I enjoy visiting the public library and seeking out books with
reproductions of old photographs from Atget and others. For me,
it is like looking into the past. You have to stretch the imagination
to add the color and motion from the thin slice of time.

     A 100 years or 200 years from now, I would guess that people in
that future time will be similarly interested.
