Sepia Saturday 751 : 23 November 2024

 


This month on Sepia Saturday it is all about arrivals and our theme image this week features a 1953 photograph of the great explorer and climber, Sir Edmund Hillary, arriving in Amsterdam. You can follow whichever train of thought you want - just let us have your photographic submissions to explore on or around Saturday 23rd November 2024. And before you set out, take a look at what Sepia Saturday has to offer for the rest of the year.

    1. I knew you would have a wonderful gallery of family photographs for Thanksgiving. As for your second post - yes, yes I chuckled! Thank you.

  2. Nice to be back here after a break for fiction writing. (Spoiler alert: it’s harder than non-fiction :-) And Uncle Fred is back, too, with an amusing 1942 story about one of our mutual relatives.

    1. I seemed unable to comment by clicking on the button - hence here. A lovely photograph of your parents and I was very struck by the text on the noticeboard - so true.

  4. This theme almost beat me until I remembered a postcard with a train car in the background. No mountain to climb but musical, of course.

  5. I struggled a bit with this prompt picture of a happy couple arriving at a train station. I had posted earlier this year about trains, happy couples and wedding flowers. So my focus was on discovering my emigrant ancestors who arrived in New York from England in 1856-57.
