It’s Waterfall Wednesday and I just got back from visiting this most unique waterfall, tucked away in a remote holler in the Arkansas Ozarks.

Coming at ya from 1973 is this #restored portrait of my mother and father. It’s the only one they took together. My mother is sixteen here - my father is eighteen. They took this just before they both dropped out of high school to elope in Mexico. I was born in Germany a year later.

Here’s a blast from the past I know will get a chuckle from my Aunt Julie - and probably my Uncle Mike. Here’s Aunt Julie at Milby High School’s winter formal, December 1973. The first image is the #restored version of the original that follows.

This is a #restored Kodak Kodachrome slide from 1964. It was kept in an old cardboard box that was stored in a dirty barn for decades. It's a shot of my granddad somewhere in east Texas on a deer hunt in November. It was taken by my Uncle Rusty, if I'm not mistaken, with Granddad’s old Canon with a 35mm lens. After I fixed the scratches on the original scan, my job was easy - soft light, good bokeh and lens vignetting, I was also impressed with the old color palette and white balance, and frankly didn't feel the image needed much enhancement. The next images are the originals.

Today's #photorestoration features this portrait of my father on his first birthday - December 30th, 1954. Today, he would be turning 69. The second photo is the only snapshot of my father and I together in Stuttgart, Germany, when I was a few months old in 1974. I would meet him again twelve years later.

Today's #photorestoration features this snapshot from 1950 in Fresno, California. Seated at the head of the table is Mauro Papagni, an Italian farmer who immigrated from Italy in the early 1900s, and to his right is his wife Angelina (who I remember fondly as Great-Grandma Papagni). They are seated at the table with their kids - the two little ones are my dad and Aunt Sandy seated with their mother (my Grandma Julie). Once I cleaned-up and colored the photo, I recognized what they were having for dinner. Angelina made a supper of macaroni with homemade tomato sauce and a salad with bread. I grew up eating this exact same meal every Sunday evening with Grandma Papagni and the whole extended family, sometimes reaching 25+ members in attendance - it was such a big deal we were even featured in the Fresno Bee. She prepared that meal for her growing family for over 50 years. Amazing. A tradition I'll treasure in my heart forever.
