Friday's Found

I hope you all have a fancy hat kind of a weekend...



(Each Friday I'll share a found photograph with you, in hopes of further celebrating how photography can enrich our lives. Whenever I visit thrift stores or antique shops, I really enjoy looking through bins and boxes of photographs and paper ephemera. Found photographs have an air of mystery about them, and whether they incite laughter, admiration, or a gentle heartache, they spark a sense of curiosity and wonder that makes me feel in-the-moment alive and part of a common humanity. And I like that.)

Friday's Found, The Lovely Lady


This week, you may have noticed a prevailing theme -- Faces!
I thought this found photo would be a perfect way to wrap up the week. I hope your weekend is every bit as lovely...

Flight Attendant Fancy







My brother and his lovely wife are having a Halloween party, and in typical fashion, I have no idea what to wear. It occurred to me this morning that I may be able to turn an outfit I already have into snazzy 1960's flight attendant garb.

I did a quick google image search and found these photographs. Air travel in its heyday... wowzah, don't you just love it? My aunt was a United Airlines flight attendant during these times, and she said the outfits were such fun to wear.

What about you? Do you dress up for Halloween, or save that sort of silliness for the kids?
