Everyday summer days, people are gathering in front of the wall to get their image taken.

I had to do the same…

I took an image of a suspended chandelier in a Quebec city church, image taking from below, hand held HDR. Then I used a 7 faces prism effect.

I needed a quality frame for the Angel in the middle.

Your morning angel!

A big change in his life, in our life.

Before taking him to the base, we promised each other we would do a photo shoot, if there is a time when my son and I really enjoy being together, it is during these wild photo sessions. Cédric is not a model, rather an accomplice.

Furthermore, my daughter Val took the shot and my wife Lise was in the background, supervising, a real family affair.

We did the shot under a railway bridge in Sainte-Anne-de-Bellevue. With our “look of the day”, tree flashes and a ladder, we didn’t go “unnoticed”.

To be noted, neither my son and I are smokers, it was part of my concept. Cédric was a bit “greenish” at the end. Thank God, he brought some Halls lozenges, what a nasty taste, berk.

The concept: Cédric wanted to make it’s entry to the base with the longest possible hairs, so the army barber could have a good time. I also spotted a wig at the “Dollar” store that strangely fitted the length and colour of Cédric. Bingo…

I can’t stop looking at this image, you will understand that it means a lot to me.

Good luck my Son, I am so proud of you…

It is hard to know what exact year it was made, we can easily say that the two cameras we build more than half a century apart…
