photo exploration


i tried uploading this picture last week, but it wouldn't work. sadness at the failed attempt.
however, patience has paid off.
there was a little photo exploration last week through my gran's photo albums in preparation for my grandpa's celebration of life service, as he has recently passed away. gran used to sit and go through an album or two with me on most my visits as i've gotten older and before gramps got ill. i seriously could be content sitting looking through all those albums over and over again. so much photographic history.
when i'm not so sleepy, maybe i'll post a few more of my favourites that have been scanned in.

until then, i'm not exactly certain what it is about this picture that brings me so much joy, but it does.
for world, these are my parents a la 1974.

i just visited my grandma in toronto and the best part was looking at the photos lining her walls. i ended up taking a few pictures of the photos (my sister and me, my parents wedding and one of my dad's family when he was young). I didn't think about it until I read this post, but for me i think it's nice to look at relationships that are rocky now but were so full of love and happiness back when the photos were taken.

so fascinating, isn't it? - imagining what was going on back when the picture was taken.
(can i see your pictures when we see each other when i'm stateside?)
