    So. My mom somehow got ahold of HER grandfathers old photo album.

    As it was in complete disrepair, and everything was falling apart, we were looking to preserve it.

    Enter my Digital SLR, a number of document reproduction techniques for cameras I learned back in photography class, and the macro lense I recently obtained.


    I haven't really scoured over the photo album yet. But a couple photos jumped out at me while I was taking pics. So creepy. So wierd. I knew I had to make really close up copies so I can later blow them up and somehow get them into my halloween stuff.

    Anyway. No idea who these people are. They're all probably fuming in the afterlife about my intended use of their photos.

    A family portrait...

    Don't they all look like raving psychopaths waiting to rip your head off?



    Creepy woman...



    Not really of use, but I like to call this "wicked witch with a gun".

    I love old photos and these are great! I don't think there is anything creepy about them at all! I wouldn't smile, either, if I had to so as long as they did just to get a picture.

    Mygranda found some real old pics of my Family. So I scanned them. I am going to print them out and use them for my haunt.
    Build it and they will come.

    I'm thinking the woman sitting down in the middle definitely may fit that bill. Those are very cool, UnOrthodOx, I hope you'll share more as you keep going with the preservation project!

    these are awsome old studio photos , i love old pictures , their a real treasure on their own ...look at the clothes their wearing ...love it... i have alot of them from my grandmother....i have in my house in an antique gold metal frame my mother and father wedding picture in very few colors in those times, i also have a picture in sepia of my grandfather in an old glass bubble frame , and a painting of my grandmother .....makes great conversation pieces and go with the antique vintage decor

    the people making the lenticular portraits use those old photos ....so try and imagine these as haunted portrait very cool.....you can probably make haunted pic ina photoshop program or in paintshop pro

    Completely awesome. I love them. I wish I was able to find ancient family photos. I don't even think my Grandmother has cool ones like those.

    Cool photos. When looking thru old family photos I've had the unfortunate experience of finding old death photos. Nothing worse than running into pictures of REAL dead folks in coffins, especially babies. I forbid my mother from taking pictures of my dad when he died.
