I'm grateful for the digital era. I know this isn't the best scan, but scanning Kodachrome film is very difficult for me. And of course most of my slides are Kodachrome 64. Although I do have much more work in B&W, in which I'm able to achieve a decent scan these days. I find it more alluring to make new digital photos than rework old images in a medium in which they were never intended to be displayed. It's impossible to rephotograph some things though--like Nicholas at 5 years old.
Many children were were killed in a fire at this site. It's odd to think about them with my own child standing in the ruin. Roland Barthes once said that people in photographs are ghosts. It's an interesting thought. Memories and shadows of what once was and is long gone. Frozen in time by the photographic process.

This shard was just sitting out on the ground in plain sight. I told the director of the site about it after I was finished walking around. She thanked me, and went down to collect it before someone else did.

Here he is by the garden hose, for scale.
