Hi, I’m Ron Franklin and I love both photography and history. What fascinates me is when I can kind of crawl into a historic photo and experience the scene it depicts as if I was there in that time and place. To that end, I’ll often spend hours researching the background of a photo to learn as much as I can about the reality behind the image.
That’s what this website is all about – the story behind historic photos. If you share my fascination, I invite you to join me in this journey of historical discovery.
