My brother emailed me this photo of my fraternal grandmother (center), my dad (to her right) and my uncle (to her left.) It has always puzzled me as to why people never smiled in "old" photographs. I wonder when it was that it became de rigeur to smile for the camera. Maybe once movie stars hit the scene.

Do you know the history behind "saying cheese?"

That's a great picture! I have no idea where "saying cheese" came from. If you find out, will you share?
