Remembering a great man

My father-in-law died earlier this year and I am helping my wife’s family find, scan and restore old images. Here is something that I have been working on tonight. The picture was is very bad shape as you can see. He is with his brother and some of the “trophies” from some of their hunting trips.

First pass of the scanner



second pass of the scanner



Then i had to "painstakingly" paste them together.



Then i had to remove the scratches and missing pieces and correct the exposure.

Fourth of July with Carin!

I had a lot of fun in Salem with Carin watching the fireworks!

 

FAMILY VACATION

   My family and I got back Sunday night from a much needed vacation.  I am in the process of updating my Lightroom and will post more images shortly but this is what I have for now.

 

 

We went up to Dwight, Ontario.  It is a very small town outside of Huntsville.  My wife's family has had a place up there for almost 100 years.  This is Carin swimming in the lake. 

I will give more information in the next day or two.  Trust me, there is a picture of the lake that is out of this world.

Happy Father's Day

I cannot believe that it this is my 10th time being a father on father's day!  My little girl Carin is just awesome.  She brings me such joy and happiness, it is not funny. 

I do feel a little sorry for her, she looks just like I did when I was younger.  I found an old picture of myself and I could not believe it. 

She is the reason why I am doing this photography gig.  My father worked at a job he could not stand and was miserable.  He lived 3 or so years after his retirement before he died.  (In his 60's)  I promised myself that I would not put myself in the same situation.
