You are welcome ;)

I was amazed by that, specially after seeing my grandpa... He is very old now (94) and I always listened to his stories and finally I can put an image in my head!...

I took some portraits of him during the gathering, but haven´t download them yet. I will post a pic of him so you can see.

Oh, BTW, my grandpa is the one is the left in both pics.

Very cool photos. A lot of character, both in the poses and because of the black and white.

I know how you feel Fer, I have some great old shots of my grandfather that my grandmother gave my a few years back. They are priceless to me. Thanks for sharing.

I actually have one shot of him coming over on the boat from Spain to Elis Island. It's pretty cool. I wish I would have scanned them before I had them framed so I'd have a digital copy too.

Fantastic!

I work in a dark room every once and a while doing copies and reprints. I simply love getting these older negs...they are a pain in the butt to work with, but it's so cool to print photos that are so old.
