Hi everyone, well it’s time for Rochelle’s Friday Fictioneers – the inspiration for the flash fiction is an evocative photo from Bill Reynolds, I hope Bill doesn’t mind that I have made the image into black and white for my piece, you can see the full original version on the link below. My story of 100 words is entitled, ‘The Remembrance’, thanks for reading.

Poignant Angela, descriptive & very well written! 👍😁👏👌

A good use of the prompt, which the black and white photo, enhanced

I do not mind at all.
Unlike what the Paul Simon song (Kodachrome) says (My sweet imagination//Everything looks worse in black and white), your rendition of the photo does fit your excellent, if sad, story. Well done.

That was very atmospheric. The words ‘just me then’ lent a forceful sense of loss and isolation.

Closure’s a tricky thing. Revisiting can trigger memories and emotions in different ways for different people.
