This is the only picture of my grandpa that I can truly see how he use to be. I have never met him because he died when I was about 2 years old apparently from something he picked up when he fought in WWII. It's so interesting in how a photo can hold a lot of meanings even it's just a simple object with color making the image that you captured at that time. I made it blurring because I don't really know him making the sense that he seems like a blur. Yet I do hear a lot of stories in how much of a character he was with the family and some of his stories at war. Seems that he was a simple man, not amazing stories if he was a general or starred in a movie, but to me he's average and that's okay because most of the people in this world are just average and that's fine. To everyone he is just average, but to me he's more because I have never met him making him very interesting to me.
