And that's the amazing thing, that someone was there with a camera and just took that one shot so we could see it all these years later like we were there. Don Draper's "It's not a slide projector, it's a time machine" speech is true!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16842611749073935723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1978925481748522797.post-20807980401068786152014-06-02T17:56:07.624-05:002014-06-02T17:56:07.624-05:00That's amazing-- I can't even imagine what...That's amazing-- I can't even imagine what it would be like to see such rapid change to a country... from rural to modern, to boot!<br /><br />I would L-O-V-E to see those pictures, email me the scans if you get a chance! You know how I love a handsome man in a 1940's photograph (ie A LOT). That's so cool you have digital copies to look at and remember that part of your grandfather's history.

Your comments are always so kind and it's readers like you that make me want to keep this blog up and open for business! :) I was all set to do a post about the parents and their adorable kids, and then I came across this set and my jaw just dropped. The father, Roy Hatch, has such a good eye for photography (which he's passed on to his son, who is also a photographer and put these photos on flickr!).Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16842611749073935723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1978925481748522797.post-23828776990383655772014-06-02T17:45:56.086-05:002014-06-02T17:45:56.086-05:00I just don't think it can be beat for longevit...I just don't think it can be beat for longevity and color-saturation.

I lived in Korea from kindergarten through 4th grade, and the changes to that country even since I was there are astounding. I think anyone looking at old photos of Korea and Japan would just be so impressed how the hard work and diligence of those people have built some of the most incredibly modern cities and societies in the world!<br /><br />I have some old WWII photos of my grandfather looking very handsome if you ever want to check them out. At least, I have the digital scans now, the originals went back to the family safe.Aubreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18090860658064883118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1978925481748522797.post-28444978079805990832014-05-24T12:41:40.428-05:002014-05-24T12:41:40.428-05:00Brr!

The three portraits are my favorites. There's such an immediacy there. (And I love chipmunks!)Lauren Hairstonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18037717621464819611noreply@blogger.com
