Bill Wadman - My Father, Missed / Plymouth, CT September 16, 2007
I can still hear his laugh... - David McDonnell Just beautiful. I'm tearing up.
My thoughts with you and your Mother. - Dan (the original one) - http://studyhumannature.blogspot.com/ nice tribute Bill, I can see you in that photo of him. - Daniel Krieger - www.danielkrieger.com This is the most emotionally vulnerable and stirring photograph of this collection. You make me, a songwriter, want to write a song every day for a year. Your transformation and growth are beautiful and an inspiration. Jocelyn - 415grl This is lovely. - Emily beautiful. - Carlos - http://SuckItJesus.com I don't know him... anyway I start to cry
Pau from Spain. - pau Simply heart-rendering Bill. - Jack Beautiful. It is. - AL Its lovely. - Mary A very moving tribute Bill. A great photo of your father, given profound emotional power from its new context, the unseen presence of the two of you, and the date. RIP Bill Snr. My thoughts are with you Bill Jnr. - Simon What a beautiful tribute, Bill. We all miss him. - Amy King Hi Bill - sending you a big hug today
Sarah, Tom & Stan x - Sarah Wenham Bill, there is something about the old school photo of your Dad that makes it surreal for me as if you were the one taking that original photo, perhaps it is the way he is posing. He is missed and you are doing him proud. As different as this is from all the others it couldn't fit in any better. - Eric - www.myspace.com/ericwagner76 Really beautiful...and touching. - Logan - www.loganlevkoff.com Brilliant & heartbreaking. A big hug to you & your family, indeed. - nuno Breathtaking, Bill! Sending you hugs. - Ela I was just looking thru your photographs and when this one came up my heart ached and I had tears in my eyes. Oh how I miss Uncle Bill!! I only hope that your Dad is keeping my Mom entertained in heaven!! Beautifully done Cousin Billy! XO to you, Aunt Cindi & Cousin Melissa - cousin susan Very sad, moving and beautiful. - Diane Stunningly moving i'm proud of you Lots of love always Kara - very honest & moving. thank you for being vulnerable through the eye of a lens... - story - prettylittlemess.wordpress.com Incredibly moving, sad, but hopeful...my thoughts are with you Bill. - Becca Brown This photo finally makes me to comment too (after loking at your portraits for months and loving nearly all of them).
But I can't find the right words.
I'm sitting here for 20 minutes now thinking and looking at the picture (and the comment field). Still no words.
Just know that I am very deeply moved and want to thank you for all your beautiful photographs - and especially this one. - Anne Speechless. Rare for me. - James Just the best. - Jose beautiful... i am moved. with you. - youri He was one of kind and touched many people. Beautiful tribute. - matt g. Very beautiful, very moving, brings tears to my eyes. - Susan - www.susandennisphotography.com What a wonderful memorial. I think you must get bonus points in heaven for getting a picture of a tombstone in a shot that still has so much life in it.
The photo inside is great too. I wonder who took that one. Pensive and handsome.
Still having to page back a few to catch up the hope I have may be moot. But your self-portrait, that would be excellent in this series.
There is your mother in this too and families. Good lord you have the threads of so many blended and presented to make the observer feel as if we do exist in this world with these people. It makes me look around all the time at faces the days after I come here. It does act to lessen the isolation that seems rampant sometimes. Anyway, seeing your portrait too in this midst, well, that would be a little joy. - Boo - http://www.xanga.com/Boowasborn
I'm Bill Wadman, a New York-based photographer who after completing my first 365 Project, and then a weekly 52 Project, took it upon myself to shoot and post one portrait every day of 2007. Each photo was taken that day, and each day was a different subject. Some were be in the studio, some in the wild. Hopefully they are all interesting.
