Comments on: Ruth in Springtime http://mybrilliantmistakes.com/2008/04/ruth-in-springtime/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=ruth-in-springtime The personal blog of Cynthia Closkey Mon, 21 May 2012 14:13:54 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Cynthia Closkey http://mybrilliantmistakes.com/2008/04/ruth-in-springtime/#comment-3318 Cynthia Closkey Wed, 23 Apr 2008 14:27:53 +0000 http://mybrilliantmistakes.com/?p=788#comment-3318 There are so many photos of me that I don't like, and so few that I love, I think I should make an effort to preserve and promote the great ones. Then again, other people are always much better than oneself at recognizing which photos are the right ones.

I know what you mean about certain photos being more prized than others. I wonder what pictures of me will still be around in sixty or seventy years. I love that photograph too.

As I look at this photo, the person I think of first isn't even my grandmother; it's my Aunt Ruthie, who was always the one who looked most like Grandmom, and yet who had some conflicts with her. Ruthie's alive -- she's not old; she's the youngest of my aunts -- but she's been through some tough things, and I'm worried about her. I'm looking forward to seeing her, and at the same time I'm worried about seeing her too. Isn't family interesting?

Excellent composition and color value. Whomever took that photo knew what they were doing. I hope you are able to find more. Really makes the memories of our loved ones shine brighter.
