Love the photos Zed. Could you say what time period they were taken?

Hi cat, many of these images were in a "reject" pile that I hadn't looked at for a long while and were taken around 1998 when I was on some kind of Search (having come upon some ancestral genealogical photos of family members from the late 1800's.) My thoughts went to losses, fractures, repair and Natures vagaries.

I filed away ideas to do a sepia series some day that would drain away the colour to be able to concentrate on details that are often overwhelmed by tropical tints. These are my first attempts at the process.

I think they are beautiful. Glad you brought them out of the "reject" pile to share with all of us.

Thanks jeannieb...for whateva worth, you are directly responsible for getting me on & off my rear end to assemble this series after you commented about the "kodachromes" (Minding Xamayca):

I love the nostalgic feel the old film gives. I love pictures with a sepia tint.

Thanks for the response Zed. The pics do seem from an earlier period. You are one of the folks on this site I'd care to meet some day; you have so much to teach.
