ONE MAN'S CHRISTMAS: Part 4

And on the last day Ernie rested, unsure if anyone appreciated anything he'd done. With all the toys he bought his son it ends up the kid prefers the hassock. Oh well, tomorrow he goes back to work where he knows he's not appreciated.

And so we come to the conclusion of One Man's Christmas here at Sepia Saturday.

ONE MAN'S CHRISTMAS: Part 3

Ernie with his amazing gift, a Polaroid camera. Now for some quiet time to sit and read the manual. Ernie is content with his Christmas...for the moment, until the manual becomes too complicated.

This is part 3 of a 4 part Sepia Saturday post.

ONE MAN'S CHRISTMAS: Part 2

This fellow, we will now call him Ernie, is trying so hard. The child in snapshot 1 was sitting and staring at the bedsheet covering the table beneath the Christmas tree. We now find Ernie trying to give her encouragement that domestic toys are fun.

Come back tomorrow to see more of One Man's Christmas.

ONE MAN'S CHRISTMAS: Part 1

Was your Christmas good or bad, or are you still trying to figure that out? Sometimes it takes time to digest not only the meal, but the emotions of the day.

Starting today I present to you One Man's Christmas in 4 parts. I know nothing about this fellow other than the prints were made in 1966. It's possible this is his 1965 Christmas.

I will let you figure out the story.

Be sure to come back the next three days to see his story unfold.

This series will be my contribution to the latest Sepia Saturday.

CHRISTMAS redux

Here's another oldie from last year that bears repeating. I will say nothing. It's all here within the shot. Some wonderfully odd family dynamics captured. Look into the details. It's just plain odd. I love this shot! Oops, I gave it away. A moment caught by the camera that told, most likely, nothing but lies.
