FREE Vintage Image Thursday plus Amaryliis

This is a vintage photo of my Grandfather. I'm going to guess this is from around the 50's.  Wish I knew for sure. Anyway, this image is Free for you to use in your artwork, that you sell or not,  but please do not sell the image, itself. Have fun with it and if you'd like to share what you created with any of my images, leave a link so we can ooh and aah over it.
This is the amaryllis my mother-in-law gave to me at Christmas. It was a stalk in the soil and then each day it got bigger and bigger until pop all the beauty came out and greeted me in one morning. I had to snap it quick before the lighting changed or someone knocked off a flower or something.

  3. I love these old photos! I have a couple of photos of my grandfather with his car. Seems like he was always getting a new car! You are so generous to share! I'm sure it's always fun to see what others have created with them.

    Your amaryllis is breathtaking! And your grandfather is a handsome fella!
