When This You See, Remember Me 01

Grandpa Sam Maggid and me, Eagle River, Wisconsin, 1946. The shadow is the photographer, Grandma Mary Jonash. This is purportedly me taking my first steps walking.

Like a wood fire in a room, photographs - especially those of people, of distant landscapes and faraway cities, of the vanished past - are incitements to reverie.

-Susan Sontag, "On Photography"
