First up (above) is a 4½-inch-wide photo, plus a magnification, of a hilltop field with a pair of similar-looking, cabin-like structures. A teeny-tiny figure can be seen standing outside one of the buildings. And then there's the car. I'll defer to the expertise of others, but it looks like a Ford from the early 1930s.
I really like this second photo. Whether it was skill or luck, the photographer ended up with some nice interplay between light and shadow. The slightly smiling woman stands in a shaded part of the yard, near a good-sized tree. In the background are an impressive brick house and the rear portion of another old (to us) vehicle.
Who was she? A wife and mother? A writer? Kitchen help? A woman with a mind for mathematics and rocket science?
What did she dream about? What did she see during her lifetime?
