I love this Don. I recently moved back to Minnesota to connect to my roots after 30+ years in Denver, and a small project I have started is "Grandpa's Garage" he had a few. My current challenge is working up the courage to knock on the door of my childhood home to get permission to photograph the garage my Dad & Grandpa built.
Hey Don! In December I published a book on WWII "bomber jackets," a personal project that lasted 8 years...so far. Created images in 12 different museums across the country, and jackets that were privately owned too. Portraits of over 25 WWII veterans were created, and the whole was transformed into a 398 page book. Along with a bit of WWII history, it also features as many personal stories as could be collected, and a chapter on how these jackets have influenced fashion and culture worldwide, a section on collecting the jackets (written by an Antiques Roadshow appraiser), and an FAQ section on their care. Complete with an index. See more info here at www.wwiibomberboys.com. Happy to discuss the process, should folks have questions...
