My father celebrating his 100th birthday. If I didn't already own the 77, I'd have bought it just for this occasion.

Terrific shot Dave. Hope you are blessed with those longevity genes. My father passed away at 54 so I think it is wonderful that your family has been so fortunate.

Cheers.

Wow I would have pegged him at 70yrs old ! you should be proud he looks great

**joip** · 11-11-2014, 08:50 AM

Great shot! He looks so happy with a sparkle in his eyes. I think your dad would like you to buy a new lens for the occasion - there must be something you are longing for......

He looks so happy. The capture is a memory forever.

t doesn't get any better than that...what a joyful photo....I am sure one of the main secrets to his longevity lies in his ability to express joy so wonderfully.....Great share, Bravo!

My mother at 87, a year before she died from Alzheimer's.
Dad's and a Mom's...amazing creatures. You never realize how great until they are gone.

What a wonderful occasion to celebrate. And he looks like he's ready to do so

Tell him Happy Birthday from me and he's to have a large dram on you.

Thanks for the comments everyone! He did enjoy himself (as we all did ;~) So sorry for your loss, Nelson--I'm sure you treasure that that photo.

77 does the job perfectly. Your father seems 77 with it not 100.
