Back in the Day SA

My (much mentioned) (and well deservedly so) friend, Elaine, has an ongoing project in which she sources, sorts, scans, blogs etc etc slides from wherever she can get them. Elaine holds the occasional themed slide show with theme(s) such as 'boats and beaches','urban spaces' or 'people and families' for interested friends. Pete organises some music and voila: an evening of art and entertainment.

These slides provide a voyeuristic glimpse through the eye of random South African photographers & photography enthusiasts' slide collections from long ago..

One of the many extensions of this project is the Back in the Day SA blog which features a pick of amazing slides which have been scanned...

...with a few pondering remarks as to what was going on. Visit the blog for a view into 'yesteryear South Africa'
