Foto Friday - January

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.

    Nice 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.

      Thank you, after all the work of digitizing these slides it was nice to find a practical use for some of them.

    I see why you chose that photo. And what a thoughtful gift idea too.

      Thank you, my step-mother was blown away by it, even people who didn't know my dad loved the photos.
