Perfect Duluth Day

Selective Focus: Ancestry

This week’s theme offers the opportunity for a p.s.a.: have prints made of the images you’re making now, or we might not have the kinds of memories shown here. Digital media storage changes so quickly that having our memories in tangible form may vanish. Anyone still have a floppy drive on their pc, or a pc for that matter?

Next week’s theme will be “November;” that time of year we brace ourselves to pivot into Winter when the leaves have peaked, turkeys remain unbasted, and the holiday lights haven’t yet gone up. Send your unwatermarked, signature-less images by Wednesday at 11:59 p.m to tim @ perfectduluthday.com — 1000px at their largest dimension — along with title (if any), and URL of your website, Facebook page, Tumblr, or Flickr stream.
