1861

amazing the impression that a year can leave on us. to this day, whenever I see the number 1861, i remember the images of that year. so clearly. even if they are only contained now in the earliest, most granulated greyish photos - the year that America went to war against itself: one of the bloodiest times in our history. and now, 1861 is so quiet. the sounds have completely dissipated, and all we are left with is the image of the men who marched actoss these great lands to die . . .

1861.
