time capsule


 i LOVE this picture of the little mystery child. i love the effect the light leak has given this picture, her drooping lily her flower headband worn hippie style and her moms ballet flats that are too big for her. i love how her head turned to the side and she has the cutest little smirk on her face as she poses for this picture.

the mister had bought a russian, zenit-e camera, 1980's olympics model. it has traveled a long way from the u.s.s.r since we boycotted that years olympics! well low and behold there was old film still in it, SCORE! it's like finding a buried time capsule. there was still some pictures left to take so we ran around town taking pictures and when we came back home we found this cutie among the rest of the our pictures. isn't she precious!

i have obsessed over this picture ever since and my mind had been wondering in so many directions as to who she is and where she is now...for now my mind is happy with this unexpected mystery...have a great rest of your weekend...i am off for a nice bike ride and some treasure hunting.

  1. That is so cool :) I love old/vintage things like this, finding an old picture of an unknown person, wondering where they are now. You're so lucky to have found a treasure like this!

  3. oh my goodness, that picture is BEAUTIFUL. I feel kind of bad that that little girl who is now a grown doesn't get to see this amazing picture of herself. i can't get over how pretty that picture is!
