And then, as a refrain, take a look at the next songs on the playlist -

Sepia Saturday 665 : Saturday 25 March 2023

 


It's enough to make you cry. Well, not actually cry: more cry out. And you can cry out whatever you want here on Sepia Saturday. Cry out by using one of your old photographs and a few new words on or around Saturday 25th March 2023 and add a link to the list below. And then dry your tears and look what we have to offer in the weeks to come:-

Sepia Saturday 664 : 18 March 2023

 


You've got to laugh, haven't you? Hopefully, somewhere amongst your photographic archives, you will have a picture of somebody laughing, The chances are, that it won't be an early photograph: the Victorians and Edwardians weren't all that keen on laughter, and, anyway, the primitive cameras demanded set features. By the time we get to the 1920s and 1930s, photography had come away from the formal studio and inhibitions had been cast aside. So for Sepia Saturday 664, we are asking you to give us pictures of either people laughing, or possibly, pictures that will make us all laugh. Just post your posts on or around Saturday 18th March 2023 and add a link to the list below. And then have a look at what is to come - that will have you laughing on the other side of your face!

Sepia Saturday 663 : Saturday 11 March 2023

 


We're down this week. Not down like that, no; we're as happy as a sepia sandboy, it is just that our theme is "down". As always, you can interpret that as you will - or not interpret it at all. The choice is yours. Whatever you choice, post a post on or around Saturday 11th March 2023 and link it to the list below. And as for the future, you can laugh or cry, sing or dance, or preferably, do all four.

Sepia Saturday 662 : Saturday 4 March 2023


So what have you all been up to? The one thing I haven't been up to is getting the Sepia Saturday prompts up on time! My apologies for that, it was due to circumstances beyond my control - a malfunction was discovered just as the plane got to the end of the runway and the pilot had to turn back for repairs. I am glad to say that the malfunction has been corrected and we are back on course again - just a week late! As you will have gathered, this week's theme is UP and we are ready for your submissions on the Link List, the position of which is being pointed out to you by your cabin staff. Post your post on or around Saturday 4 March 2023, sit back, relax, and take a look at next week's theme (More to follow, promise)

Sepia Saturday 660 : Saturday 18th February 2023


Sepia Saturday has been going on a long time - since November 2009, in fact - and we've had every kind of theme, but the one for this week is long overdue. Your theme is "long", and, as usual, you can make of it what you want. Just post a post featuring an old photograph and add a link to the list below. And whilst you are here, take a look at the themes that are just around the corner.

Sepia Saturday 659 : 11 February 2023

 


This week our Sepia Saturday theme is cars: big cars, small cars, posh cars, poor cars - any old cars you like; but this being Sepia Saturday, the emphasis will be on the old cars. All you need to do is to post a post (either on-theme or off theme) and link it to the list below on or around Saturday 11th February 2023. And where are we going with all this - this is where ...
