Dad and Pam ( I'm guessing, taken about 1945)
Over Christmas Dad spent a fair bit of time scanning old family photos...I'm now reaping the benefits of his work, as I have a wonderful archive of old family photos from his childhood.
Some of them are just beautiful, I thought I'd share them.
When I took this photo my father thought the barn above was better. So, this one is for him. Godspeed, Dad.
My Dad (1921-2001) 1923. I lost my father just over eighteen years ago and my memories of him are mostly when he was middle aged and as he got old and those that remembered him as a child have all been gone a very long time now. The only two people people that I ever met that remember his youth were one of his cousins that was around the same age and a great Aunt that lived close a hundred that I met only once when I was 19. RIP Dad.
Everything seems calm at the Kestrel nest - that is - until Mom or Dad shows up with some goody to eat. Then all the chicks start screaming and trying to position themselves to be the one to grab that mouthful of food. June 2025
Through the window I see a tussle going on between Mockingbirds and the Cardinals. I go out to find a baby Cardinal just learning to fly. Mom and Dad Cardinal were protecting the little one. I took this at a distance, so he could feed the fledgling.
Dad talks to everyone which sometimes affords me some good photographs. Dad asked this guy where he lived and he replied, "Right here." He was a very nice man.
All her own work; from making "me" to focusing the LensBaby and taking the shot. I just did the PP. And supplied the finger.
Way cool Sophie!
My Dad through very meager times always reached out and held my hand. A. Lorne Banfield (1917 - 2004). A Lance Corporal during War Time but a Grand Banks Dory Cod Fisherman to start his life. Orphaned at 8 the children were dispersed and he ended up in Garnish Newfoundland with a caring Uncle. Poverty and struggle was just a part of life in Rural NL. So many stores he passed along. He lost his brother at sea hit by the boom of their sailing ship. Just one story stands out with humor for me is that everything was rationed for food after what could be sold for salted meat. He always volunteered to milk the cows. He discovered he could have a great morning drink by using a field straw and not break the cream on the top of the bucket so no one was the wiser.
Image of mine shot on Ilford 100 using my Pentax K1000 or the ME Super with standard 50 mm lens. Been a long time so can't remember which body. I was at college studying basic photography and this was an subject study shot.

Day 57.
Back to Jämtland, where my dad is about to catch... well, nothing that day. But beautiful it was.
Jämtland, Sweden.
My Dad's been gone since 1993 and I still miss his guidance and him traveling with me on my railfan adventures among other things. This was shot by my Mom in Marquette on the M&HM in 1975. Another 110 film shot that I wish was on 35mm. No one was around except one fellow and he graciously gave us permission to climb up and pose on the ex LS&I 2-8-0.
Dad, I thought just landing on this thing was good enough!
Son, we haven't even started-gonna be a long day!

Unfortunately I was not able to photograph my Dad's hands as I had done with my Mother. I took this with my iPhone while visiting him in hospice. These hands saw more than eight decades. They are the hands of of a teacher, gardener, artist, librarian, and most importantly Father. So much love was exchanged through these hands.

This morning Miranda and went flying with my Dad. This was our first flight since Dad started flying again last year. We were in the air for about an hour. We flew west out of Modesto then headed south to Merced then back to Modesto.
Talk about a different perspective and a whole lot of fun!! Thanks Dad!
Crazy Tuesday: Childhood memories
My dad played the fiddle, and sometimes, when I was little, I would go into the room where he practiced and dance.
I've included trees, since we lived in the country, and a dog, since we always had one. (And a cat. And a bird.)

Justin and my dad are the two most important men in my life! My dad just passed his drivers test again! Congrats dad! (My dad has Macular Degeneration)
I pulled my camera out to take a picture and he started jumping up and down waving his arms around thinking the camera would make him all blurry... You thought wrong dad. X)
