Small Wonders- Me and Dad (with his girlfriend)

I started a new photo project, tentatively called Small Wonders. It's actually not so new, it's something I've been working on in different forms. The inspiration is my Dad, who I only got to see about once a year growing up. When he died a couple of years ago, it was hard. But the experience wasn't so immediate even though I was there the day he passed away and participated in the two week-long funeral rites. For some time afterwards, I would forget and think that I could still call him. I often still speak about him in the present tense. I have dreams with him in them. Not being with him throughout the whole of his sickness removed the tangibility of it. I have decided to post a picture a day from the project as I sort through it, with tentative titles, just to get it going. Some of the photos are old, and some are new. Here's one from our trip to Hualien.
