Grandpa Joe

Grandpa Joe

Sorting out some image files today when I came across this. It's a picture of my grandfather, Joesph Giovinazzo. He unfortunately died prematurely, so I never had the chance to meet him. But from this picture I could well imagine that he was a pretty cool guy. The kid with him is my Uncle Joe, who grew up to be a contractor who built bridges. This would likely have been taken in the 1930s.

The Time to start is now

I was showing the black and white photo (above) of myself when I was younger to my grandson, and he asked me if I had lived in the olden days. He was learning about Ned Kelly in school and they were showing black and white pictures of the times. So, in his mind, black and white p ...

Memories are made of this

My oldest cousin died a while ago. I know that death at our age is expected, but her death was a surprise. There are a number of reasons I feel sad about her loss. First, we were not close, but I remember her as a very strong, friendly person who had a laugh and a smile that woul ...

Every picture tells a story

With time on my hands I have been digitising old slides, not slides of places but slides of people. We all know that it is not remarkable when looking back how images create feelings and transport us back to another time. Every picture tells a story don’t it  or says Rod Stewart ...
