FITS...Have We Had Some FITS?!!

Botanical Print from 1822


Oh Boy! Yes we have!! I am in the process of uploading all the FITS (Free Image Tuesdays) to Flicker. It will make it easier for everyone to keep track of them, download them, etc. I LOVE Flicker. I don't know why it took me so long to jump on board. There are so many photo enthusiasts out there! I love connecting with them and all of your wonderful artwork and the wonderful new artists I am finding:) So here are the FITS for today:)

These Sisters seem so close. I love the looks in their eyes and the pose that they took in this photo. I would love to see what you make with this image.


This beauty is full of promise and all of her future endeavors. I cleaned her up quite a bit for you. She had lots of water damage. Bless Photo Shop and it's ability to erase the marks of time:) Now if they only made one for my face. LOL!!!

I would like to thank all of the ladies at The Three Muses! We had an overwhelmingly fantastic first challenge and I can't wait to share more with you!!!! All the ladies who participated made such wonderful Mona art. I am getting back to everyone who left such sweet comments. You guys are awesome!

I always seem to see the ugliest weird pictures of people form the past and thought " Boy People were sure ugly back then" but HMMmmm this photo post for your pictures has proved me so wrong. The little girls are darling and that young woman ...She is stunning . Great photos .Thanks for sharing them Julie

The girls are sweet, but that young woman is absolutely beautiful. There are certain old photos that simply draw a person in, and that is one of them.

On Friday I bought a fantastic picture of a young girl with long sausage curls, wearing a white hat, white dress with lace, and black/white button top shoes.

There are some very small age spots on the photo (barely visible to the eye) and I'm trying to decide how to best preserve the original photo. Maybe remove it from the folder, or just leave it be, scan it and preserve it that way? Other photos that I've purchased are usually loose in the folder so it's not an issue.

Any suggestions? :-)

Thank you for sharing your FIT's today & I loved your quote for today too. And I really love the ART you have been doing lately. The Botany on & The one about children (I think it was the post after this one) is wonderful. You are so very talented. I want to learn to use Photoshop. I just loaded it & am going to take an online class. For some reason this program intimiates me so much. Thanks for sharing!
