Bri - Funny how you can be sitting in front of the cuompter, having a nice enough day, then suddenly in tears when the reality of people lost hits I love these photos, but it reminds me so much of my own dad who was a Scottish immigrant of the same age from the same part of Adelaide (and a massive Barnesy fan). He died at 45 and missed my wedding and the birth of his first grandchild a year ago. I've been moved to tears quite a few times by your photos, but never quite like this. Beautiful! ps my wedding ended in people being thrown in a pool too. Must be the Scottish genes.
