Sepia Saturday 799 : Saturday 1st November 2025

 

As we approach our 800th week of Sepia Saturday, our prompt photo this week defies categorisation - it's just a splendid old photograph. If you are desperate for a theme you could look at ships, the sea, companionship or whatever. If you are desperate for the story behind this particular photograph you can find it HERE. Sometimes, however, it is enough just to have a great photograph that transports us back in time. That's what Sepia Saturday has been about for the last 799 weeks - and that's what Sepia Saturday will continue to be for, at least, the next 201 weeks (providing I survive that long!). Join us on Sepia Saturday by sharing an old photograph and adding a link to the list below. And take a look at what is ahead on Sepia Saturday:-

Sepia Saturday 798 : 25 October 2025

Flight SS-798 is ready for take off. As we taxi across the airport heading for the main runway we ask all passengers to fasten their safety belts, put their seats in an upright position, and turn off all mobile phones.  You might want to use these few final moments before we take to the skies for either reviewing your life and your overall contribution to the good of mankind, or posting an old photograph to the Sepia Saturday blog. You can do either (or, indeed, both) on or around Saturday 25th October 2025 and then adding a link to the list below. And if you look out of the plane windows you will catch a sight of what is to come in the next few weeks here on Sepia Saturday. Have a good flight.

Sepia Saturday 797 : 18th October 2025

We are going places by a coach and horse this week here on Sepia Saturday, and if you want to be specific, we are going down Manningham Lane in Bradford. Don't worry, however, if you want to join in the Sepia Saturday challenge, you don't have to come to Bradford, or even post old pictures of Bradford. As always, any old pictures will do, whether they are on theme or not. Just post the pictures on or around Saturday 18th October 2025 and add a link to the list below. And then take a look at what is coming up on Sepia Saturday - and note in particular that our 800th Sepia Saturday challenge is just around the corner.

Sepia Saturday 795 - 4th October 2025

 

We are going places at speed this week on Sepia Saturday. The speed, however, might just be dependent on how fast the little legs of the chap behind the driving wheel can. push along. At the end of the day, it doesn't really matter how fast you go, it is getting to your destination that matters. So, as Sepia Saturday motors towards its 800th week, why not join us by sharing an old photograph on or around Saturday the 4th October 2025, and then leave a link below. Where else might we be going in October - why not take a look:-

Sepia Saturday 794 : 27 September 2025

I decided that for October we should have a general theme of "Going Places" but looking at my choice of theme image for this week - the last Sepia Saturday in September - it looks as though we have already started on our journey. Of course, you don't have to be going places - perhaps you are just sat in a boat going up and down on the waves and feeling slightly sea-sick. Equally, you don't have to stick to the theme - this is Sepia Saturday where anything goes as long as it is old and photographic. Whatever your contribution might be, contribute it on or around Saturday 27th September 2025 and add a link to the list below. And then take a look at the places we are going to in October.

 

Sepia Saturday 793 : 20th September 2025

 

It's a team game, one where we all pull together, one where we share our favourite old photographs with fellow enthusiasts. That's Sepia Saturday - and that is also our theme for this week.  as this is Sepia Saturday, however, it is not like most other games. There are no rules. You can therefore either follow our theme image or completely ignore it. It's up to you. All we ask is that you share an old photograph on or around Saturday the 20th September 2025 and add a link to the list below. And during half time, you might want to look at the forthcoming fixtures here on Sepia Saturday.
