A day with Dad

[AIRIC]

When I scrolled through the entire series (of which each photo is a "winner"!), I had to stop for longer at the first lighthouse pic. That one is soooooooo good.
But I love a good many others of them, and all those that show your dad.
I pity all those who lost their fathers early or maybe even never met them - I admire my father most of all the persons in the world these days and owe him a lot, too!

I also really like the third Railway Museum photo (black and white).
I don't understand what was going on with that kid gagged and bound in duct tape - who did that? (Good capture from afar!)
No need to mention my envy at each and every of your bird close-ups... :roll: - but you are always giving me hope, telling me I might get to get such photos in the future, too, thanks :blushing:
And I also find that bare yellow branch very nice (if the photos had numbers, I could be more specific, but now I am too lazy to count them all through :greenpbl: ), and the two of that old WWII RCAF Training Station.

Thanks Corina. I have seen your father through your lens and can't believe all the things he does at his age. The bike trips are incredible. My father, many years ago rode his bicycle, an old three speed, from Montreal to Toronto. He gave up his mountain bike just last year but as you can see still enjoys going for walks.

I lost my mother about 16 years ago and know all about losing loved ones. Time is precious and you I can't have enough days like I did yesterday.

These photos are great to look at and I really like the last one of your dad in black and white. I also like the train pictures with your dad in because without your dad there, I would have thought the train was much smaller!

Thx Airic for a fantastic tour, these are and as always a great series of photos. I too have always admire your photography, but this set is special. You have a great vision ! And me too, the bw of your father with his camera... man !!!, a priceless image of him that will last forever.

I wish I can tell him how much of a great job he did with you in his teaching. My hats off and a stern handshake for that. Thanks for sharing your story and for once again great images.
