One of the gifts that I gave this season were calendars using some of my father's nature photography that I love so much. I used photos taken between 1952 and 1983. The current background of my blog is the photo that I used for January. Here is the whole photo.
It was taken somewhere in Litchfield County, Connecticut, according to my father, in the winter of 1963.
A journal of my search for my ancestors and their stories. I started as a name collector and now I am a family historian and preservationist. Join me as I share what I learn.

Beautiful photo! And so appropriate with today's snowfall.
ReplyDeleteThank you, he really captured this ice-storm beautifully.
DeleteNice gift, to use your father's photos this way, Anna. I get a calendar every year from one of my kids with photos of their kids & summer fun activities. This one is lovely.
ReplyDeleteThank you, after all the work of digitizing these slides it was nice to find a practical use for some of them.
DeleteI see why you chose that photo. And what a thoughtful gift idea too.
ReplyDeleteThank you, my step-mother was blown away by it, even people who didn't know my dad loved the photos.
