Project[52] – twenty five “my dad”



I’ve wanted to capture this image of my dad for quite a while and was able to make it happen over the weekend. My dad has farmed all his life and this image is one of many that I think defines who he is as a farmer; watering the grain wearing his hip waders and using his second favorite tool, “the shovel”.  His favorite tool, his pliers, as seen above is worn at all times on his left hip.  My next project will be to capture some images of him harvesting his grain next month and to capture some images in his favorite patch of ground where he grew potatoes.
