If you have access to that photo album, you should scan the photos and use them for stories. I'd be much more interested in seeing those than the same old photos recycled from Unsplash.
I'm glad this article is getting a positive response. Sometimes I relax by jotting down a little semi-poem like this. It's not really a poem, but more a stream of consciousness type exercise. I think it's a good way to take a break from the more serious articles. That one I did about Jefferson a few days ago wore me out.
I didn't learn any photography tricks until I was in my 30s, but everybody needs to learn a few. It makes photos so much more interesting. Thanks for the comment!
