Not that I photograph my sons and daughter very often (I should do a lot more!), but being a photographer and the lucky father of some "wonderful kids" (I guess that I may sound pretentious to state that, but that is what I honestly think...), I possibly have a bigger chance to create some memorable images that eventually transcend the mere function of memories in one's life.
Luís in Heidelberg, Ziegelhausen, December 15th, 1986
Hasselblad 500EL/M + Carl Zeiss Sonnar 150mm
Ilford HP5, developed in Kodak D-76, diluted 1+1
Luís celebrates today his 27th birthday, and these photographs remember me of a long gone age when we lived back in Germany. Sometimes I have the feeling that an eternity has gone by...
The clock doesn't stop for no one, and the child on these lovely pictures is a mature young man today, a man that I cherish and very much admire.
Allow me to say "Happy birthday my son! I am proud of you!"

Muito obrigado pai ;)
