My grandma! I don't know who the kid or the gentleman are.

#FamilyPhotos #1960s

My cousin sent me some negatives from the 1960s. I quickly rigged up an ad hoc scanner and converted the negatives to positives. I only recognize my cousin Dorothy (family nickname "Dabby) in these shots -- everyone else is a mystery to me.

My cousin sent me some negatives from the 1960s. I quickly rigged up an ad hoc scanner using a "Really Useful Box" (no lie!), used my phone as a light box, used my XBEAM camera to shoot the negs, put them on my #RaspberryPi, inverted them in #gimp, and HERE I AM in 1962, on the floor.

If the "expert" in your life agrees that you should keep original photos on your phone, you need to find a new "expert".

Self-host your most valuable files. Keep your originals on multiple hard drives - not your phone.

My little nephew has his 3rd birthday, today. He'll be coming over around 11am.
For some reason, I kept thinking he was turning 2 not 3. The kid's growing fast.
