  • A little boy wearing a blue jump suit stands on the pavement outside his house holding the handlebars of a favourite matching blue coloured tricycle. He looks upwards towards the viewer slightly bemused about having his picture taken by his father who looks down from a standing position. Meanwhile, the boys sister towers above him dressed in a bright red coat and clean white gloves and short white socks. Alongside her is a friend also wearing gloves and a knee-length skirt but we see only their lower bodies and not their faces so they are unrecognisable - an older sibling and a girl friend. It is the summer of 1960 and while the red is vibrant, the blues and greens are more muted in this Kodachrome film which has a wonderful magenta colour cast in the mid-tones reminiscent of the classic days of early photography when shifts in color gave a faded look

  • A Ford Anglia is parked in an empty road and homegrown beds of dahlias grow in the front garden of a council house in the early 1960s.

The car is the only one parked in the road at a time when car ownership was still to become popular among the working and middle-classes is estates like this. The colours are brilliantly reproduced and recorded by Kodachrome film by an amateur photographer in 1963. The picture shows us a memory of nostalgia in an era from the last century.

  • With a look of delight on her face, a four year-old girl stamps through fallen snow in a field near her home in Bielefeld, Germany. Wearing a vibrant red bobble hat and matching coat, she smiles towards the viewer with the pleasure of any child enjoying the excitement of fresh snow. Ski or sledge tracks can be seen at her feet but she is the only person in this empty landscape, as if she's walking on her own through the snowy hills. It is the winter of 1967 and the reds are very vibrant and dominant from the Kodachrome film used which also has a wonderful muted blue colour cast in the mid-tones giving the picture a chilly, wintry feel reminiscent of the classic days of early photography when shifts in color gave a faded and dated look.

  • A young blonde girl of approximately 3 years-old stands on a lawn looking delighted. She giggles with great mirth at something that pleases her - possibly the way her father has posed her as if she's a ballerina, or maybe because it is her birthday and her present is the blue dress she is showing off to the viewer. The girl holds out her arms while holding a special pair of sunglasses. It is the summer of 1967 and this is a housing estate for British soldiers stationed in Bielefeld, Germany still during the Cold War. The girl's father is a solder serving in the British Army and the they all live in a house nearby with other expat families. Kodachrome film has a wonderful magenta colour cast in mid-tones and where a small light-leak has affected the far right, reminiscent of the classic days of early photography when shifts in color gave a faded look.

  • A young lad of 10 poses for a portrait taken by his brother while holding the hand of his young nephew. Confusingly, the 10 year-old uncle and the 1 year-old child are closer in age than the two brothers. The older boy is on holiday in Malawi visiting expat family in the then capital, Blantyre, so named after the town in South Lanarkshire, Scotland, where the explorer David Livingstone was born. Both boys stand in the dust of a back yard where a broken windmill remains upright in the intense brightness of mid-day. It is a scene of awkward and gangly boyhood versus the confidence and innocence of young childhood and their posture is exaggerated by differing heights. Kodachrome film has a wonderful magenta colour cast in mid-tones reminiscent of the classic days of early photography when shifts in color gave a faded look.

  • A portrait of three brothers of the same family have their picture taken outside their parents' home in Westcliff, England. The eldest is a teenager of approximately 17 and  is holding his youngest brother who is still only 12 months-old. The third boy is biting his lip while looking to the viewer, more anxiously than the other two. He is possibly 14 but both the elder lads wear identically-designed jumpers that cut across the throat to allow their clean white shirts and ties to remain visible. Apart from the young child, the elders share the same dark hair colour but genetically, they share one chromosome that has given them heavy eyebrows, a family trait. This was taken on Kodachrome film stock in the spring of 1961 so the look and feel of the image is dated with wonderfully muted colours that this Kodak film offered to consumers in the early 60s.

  • A portrait of a mother in her 41st year has been gathering heather in handfuls and holds up her young child who grins towards his father who is taking the picture at a park near the Essex seaside town of Southend. It is the summer of 1960 and the mum's dress is styled from the previous decade: blue with white spots and pearl necklace. She too is smiling as she grasps the flowers and her child on a warm day. Oddly, the boy looks as though he is wearing a girl's dress which may have been a hand-me-down from an older sibling or just the trend then.
