Ah, so you’re saying goodbye to city/town called Marathon, not having some type of long drawn out race or contest of goodbyes.
Love the polaroidyness of all the shots.

Thanks TapiocaNaif. Seemed a fitting format for the back-in-timiness of this place. There are more on the previous post.

Love the photos. Things that you normally wouldn’t even notice have a charm when they are the subject of the picture. Great work Olivia.
