17th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest People
My Father

This is my father, Stewart. This photograph was taken a couple of weeks before his 70th birthday in my sister's back garden. I often take portraits of him because he's a character, everyone loves him. He is known for his stories from his time in the police. A few years ago, on my graduation night, he fell and hit his head on a kerb. He spent 3 months in intensive care. He was lucky though and made a very good recovery. Although he does forget words sometimes and so replaces them with whatever word pops into his head. It's entertaining.
