Maria Langer | 📝 🎬 ⚒️🛥️<p>Okay, THIS is definitely the oldest photo in my Photos library. 1976, standing in front of the palace at Ludwigsburg in Germany. Definitely scanned from one of the square photos from my Grandmother's old Brownie camera, which I still have. My grandfather took this photos. He and his niece and I did day trips to points of interest during our 5-week stay at her home in the Black Forest. <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/OldDays" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OldDays</span></a></p><p><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ludwigsburg" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ludwigsb</span><span class="invisible">urg</span></a></p>
