My grandfathers were both very much into photography, especially my mum’s dad, the maternal grandfather, Jack. In many ways I inherited his skills and passions for a lot of things, photography and computers. He died of cancer, a little ahead of his time and I can recall how that hit me hard at the time.
I think you carry your Grandfathers spark - that's the idea, right? It's what I feel a kind of responsibility to do.
You’re absolutely spot on. We carry our ancestors in our hearts and minds.
