Menopause or menopauza symptoms can be a real problem for middle aged women. The body suffers a lot of modifications and because of other problems like urinarry stress incontinence this can prove to be a very hard period for any kind of woman. Luckily there are products like the Zoft gum or similar which help reduce these simptoms but overall it's a tough stage in any woman's life.

Are these "pregnancy symptoms" your's, or the guy who follows you in this blog? lol Anyway, my favourite images are in black and white. Simple simplicity if that's a word!

Black and white photography has been somewhat forgotten, but a few people have found that it is great for portraits and close-up photos. The black and white look often contains an element of mystery that color photographs cannot capture. Oh! the miracles of modern technology!

The Vermont marble quarry from the 60's collection is fantastic. Something about how the intense light sources are so deep in the background and the puffy, dark figures gives me the feeling that bad things are going on in there.
"The Old Ferguson Place" from the 80's is the other one I really liked. But then again, I'm fascinated by things falling apart.

Yeah that's a classic - I believe it's the old Gaelic Park, which stood around 240th Street and Broadway in the Kingsbridge section.

The Zimbel site is incredible - just wonderful, such a rich trove of work. And yeah, there are Kennedy pics, but I love the everyday shots the best. Thanks Bob!

That Irish dancehall picture is a favorite of mine that I've had squirreled away in my iPhoto just waiting for the right time to put it in my own blog, and I never knew who took the photo. Zimbel is just great. Some of those 50s pictures are like a classic episode of "The Naked City" boiled down to one frame.
