Keeping My Vow To Dad

I do not want my fathers love, his hard work, his life, my memory of him to be forgotten, I need to keep my promise to him. I promised him that I would get a book published and dedicate it to my father.

I have to work hard after he is gone, harder than I ever have. I need to do important photography and get the book published. I can then make a dedication to dad, it is a small thing but also an important way to say thank you to my father. Dad will be remembered every time anyone opens the book.

I see the book as a series of vertical 5x7 portraits, I will start making the photos my next trip. It might take the rest of my life, but I am going to get this thing done. I owe it to dad.
