The Birthday Boys (a photos of some photos)
by Len Philpot

Somewhere lost in Louisiana...

According to the note my Mom put on the back of this montage, when she assembled it in a frame years ago:
Top row - 1, 2, 4, 5 and 6 years old
Middle row - 7 thorugh 11 years old
Bottom row - 14 through 18 years old

Most of the old B&W photos have stood up better than the (slightly) more recent color prints.

The bottom right one was taken in 1978. Do the math. :-)

Canon EOS 350D
1/45s f/3.5 at 28.0mm iso400 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

Fun!
My dad used to drag out his SLR for every birthday. The trouble was that this was the ONLY time he used that camera, so each time we would all pose and then WAIT while he figured out how to use it yet again. The very sight of that camera (before the days of AUTO mode) brought groans from all of us!

I love the birthday theme and being able to see you grow up almost year by year. Cool montage.
