One Photograph: Father & Daughter

I was lucky to have lived on a thin sliver of land between the Pacific Coast Highway and miles of walkable beach for nine years. I am so grateful for that time. There was hardly ever an instance that I did not take a camera with me on those walks. One of my favorite things to do was sit down on a big piece of driftwood, watch people go by and take a photograph or two. It was beach “street photography.”

I wish I could say that Father’s Day is a happy day for me, but it is not. That’s all I will say about that. Still, this photograph I made with my Leica MP and 50mm Summicron on Kodak’s lovely T-Max 100 film reminds me to wish all you fathers out there a happy day this Sunday.
