I didn’t now either of my grandfathers very well. My fathers dad died when I was about two and I only met my mothers father once that I can remember. We walked through his garden and he told me about the plants, their uses and their natural habitats. I remember enjoying the fact that he didn’t talk to me like I was a little kid. More adults should try that. Many, many years later when my own parents died I found a box full of negatives that he had shot in the 50s in the Sierra Nevada mountains. It was a wonderful find, being able to see a place that I love intensely, through his eyes. It helped me get to know him just a little better after so many years. I scanned some of them to my computer and would like to share a few with those who might like to see.
Sharp images! Beautiful photographs.
