Our Sepia Saturday theme this month is "love and marriage" and whilst last week I focussed on the second half of this couplet, today I am looking at the first half - love.
And if this old, faded photograph of my parents - Albert and Gladys - says anything it says love. It shouts it through the sepia salts, roars it through the cracks and creases of the tiny print.
You can set this old print next to any million pixel, super high definition digital image fresh from the most mobile of smart phones. You can put it up against the sharpest razor sharp print, the perfectly balanced colour profile, the most competently composed composition.
And still this old and faded photo would win. It screams love - love that can overcome the ravages of time.
This month our theme is LOVE AND MARRIAGE. See all the posts by visiting the Sepia Saturday Blog and following the links.
I know very little about photography, but I know a great picture when I see one. Not only that, but it's a shot of your mum and dad with their lives ahead and dozens of stories in it. You must be so proud to have it.
