The Father In Law

The photo is one I took when doing a college assignment. It's of my father in law, Jack Walters. He was 89 at the time and quite frail. He died shortly after the photo was taken, so it is a treasured memory for the family.

He was a war veteran but never spoke of what he saw. A widower for the last eight years of his life he wanted to be with his wife, Beryl.

One of my favourite portrait photographs.
