Sepia Saturday 509 : Saturday 29 February 2020

Six people sat around a table and not a smile amongst them. Our Sepia Saturday theme image this week highlights that forgotten genre - the miserable photograph. Trawl through your archives looking for frowns, scowls, and black looks, and when you find them include them in a post on or around Saturday 29th February, and then add a link to the list below. The 29th of February is traditionally the day when ladies can propose marriage to men! Perhaps that gives an entirely new interpretation to our theme image!

Whilst you think about that, take a look at our next two prompt images

Sepia Saturday 508 : Saturday 22 February 2020

By the time you read this I will be relaxing on a deckchair en board a ship taking a passage to Martinique. However my thoughts will not be on the wall-to-wall sunshine, the endless supply of jolly cocktails, and the gentle rhythm of a steel band: they will be on my Sepia friends throughout the world and their sepia challenge this week. All they have to do is to look at this week's theme image and post a post in response - on or around Saturday 22 February 2020 - featuring any old image they choose. All I will have to do is remember to wake up in time for pre-dinner drinks. It's a hard life!

Whilst you think of all the challenges facing me, relax by looking at the next couple of Sepia Saturday prompt images.

Whilst you are waiting for the desert to arrive, take a look at the menu for the next couple of Sepia Saturdays.

Sepia Saturday 506 : 8th February 2020

Whenever there is something new on the scene, people want their photographs taking with them. Be it a car, be it a plane, an airship or a rocketship: people will crowd around to be pictured with it. If the real thing is not available, there is no need to worry: any self-respecting photographic studio will have a cardboard cut-out. This week on Sepia Saturday (post your posts on or around Saturday 8th February 2020) we are celebrating such photographs and asking you to share your own. Post your post and add a link to the list below.

Whilst you are waiting for the cardboard cut-out to move, you might want to consider the next couple of Sepia Saturday theme images.
