Stories about those days.

The stories that people have about Jamie’s photos are a source of amazement.  Some are of the “that’s me and we were doing this” type of stories from Jamie’s friends. Some are the “I never met Jamie but this was taken on my birthday and it means a lot to me. And some are just stunningly moving one of a kind stories.

    I turned one years old when this was taken. Sadly I do not like clowns very much either. I can tolerate them but if one is holding a knife or other sharp object and looks at me funny then i’m out. Forget it.

    Has anyone noticed a red theme running throughout the April photos of 1980? I can’t work out what the photo is of on the photo posted on on my birthday (28/4)…

    The day my older sister was born! Funny it’s a picture of headphones being wrapped around a body part. My mom always said she would listen to her rock music and take the headphones and wrap her belly with them and my sister would dance in her belly!

    The day I was born, we used to have similar garden chairs and I quite often used to have pictures taken as a kid infront of a huge bush similar to the one in this photo.

    The day of my Brith too. I was born in west palm beach Fl. I love that Jamie continued his vision; because now I get a small glimpse of a moment in time on the same day as my birthday. I get to invent a short story about the three individuals in the photo and feel as though I was there too. Humans such as Jamie are joy bringer; even long after they are gone. (I now, I probably sound crazy, but that’s my view of the world.) Thank you for sharing his life’s work

    I remember my Grandmother singing to me on this day, “I’m six, I’m six, I’m six years old today!” lol It’s amazing…I was just a little girl, beginning my life, as this man was about to end his. I applaud his interesting way of documenting his life. Someday in paradise Jamie…

    This was the day I met my husband. We were working for separate companies at a special event that neither of us were scheduled to work until that day. The moment I spotted him, I knew my life would never be the same. ❤️
