Mosaic Monday: The Parlor

Posted by Picasa
(Click on images to view larger!)
 I took some pictures of things in the parlor and then played around with the color saturation and highlights to make the pictures look more "antique". The picture of the 'hands' is a photo I took of a page in one of the music books on top of our harmonium. The tiny framed photo in the lower right corner is a picture of my father, as a baby. It was taken in October/November of 1942, when he was about 8 or 9 months old.

I'll be joining Mary at Little Red House for Mosaic Monday.

Thanks for stopping by!
