Hi Frank!
I know they are snapshots that you took, but there is no doubt that they will be treasures. This is reminiscent of some of the comments that I have read here recently... yes, I have been lurking of late.
The following commentary is not a reflection of your pictures - whew, got that out of the way :-) I really enjoyed them. And I am sure your family will too.
There were comments made recently about getting rid of photos that were not perfect. You know the 'poor composition', out of focus, etc.
I found a few negatives that ended up in my possession - they were shots taken by my father. He does not recall what cameras he had. This is a link to a scan I made with my 'new to me' scanner - http://groups.msn.com/myrugbypictures/misc.msnw?action=ShowPhoto&PhotoID=3
This a straight scan, no corrections. This is a photo I had never seen before. By most standards this is not a good shot. This is one that would be relegated to the trash bin by some. I am glad that it survived. I am planning on getting a print of it done by my photo store and show it to my folks.
By the way, it is my a photo of me with my mother.
Take plenty of photos, you never know what you might end up with,
César Panama City, Florida

Looks like you had a nice holiday.

We did have a fantastic Christmas, Paul. For some reason this year I had the thought that we may not have too many more Christmases together as a family. My oldest is 22, and in a few years, if she has kids, she may not be able to make it "home" for Christmas.
I'm very lucky that my ex and I get along well, so I'm invited over for special functions like Christmas, Easter and the like. Lots of children of separated parents aren't so fortunate.
What I posted were just snapshots, but they'll be treasures as we all grow old.
Thanks for your thoughts, Paul,
cheers,
frank
