Assignment: 25 old pictures from the Lincoln Era and 25 pictures from my era






Craft: I went to many different search engines looking for Lincoln images and saved close to 50 pictures of Lincoln and or related people and objects to Lincol's era. I then simply took my camera out whenever I left and took random pictures from different places and different angles in hopes that they would mesh well with my Lincoln pictures. I ended up having close to 200 pictures taken of my era. I sifted through all the pictures and moved over one by one some of my favorites from both eras and made cuts until I had 25 of each.






I chose these 2 photos as my favorite:



I chose this Lincoln photo because he looks young, not quite the age of most of the inhabitants of my pictures, but he looks like he was out all night partying with crazy hair!



I chose this picture of my mom and my two dogs because this is one of my favorite moments of my day when I'm at home, because you get goodbye kisses through the convenient railing of our stairs. This is also the last picture I took of my little black dog missy before she got sick and passed away.












I actually noticed before I saw the assignment that these two pictures may mold together to have Lincoln getting kissed by my puppies, and therefore feeling the joy they give you. I would have liked to experience one of his favorite daily moments, and therefore will let him experience one of mine. They both are looking the same way and may be able to be fit together.
