I scanned and photoshopped (first time for me) some old photos of my dad and I running, then merged them together. I had a lot of things to remove from the main photo. Its clearly not the best but I think my dad will like it. It will probably be his last father's day. He was diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer about a month ago.

Happy Father's Day to you old dads, new dads, soon to be dads and trying-to-be dads.

    Nice job with the Photoshop!! I'm sorry to hear about your father. I will keep him in my thoughts and prayers.

    My daddy has been gone 11 years. I lamented about him last year in this post

    Happy Father's Day to all of you who have had the experience of being a father. It's not easy, but I wouldn't trade it for anything.

    Enjoy!

    Sorry to hear of your dad's illness, but .... he's going to love that picture.
    You ought to consider framing it, and putting a title to it: "Following Footsteps", or .... ?

    Great idea! I'm sure he will like it. Enjoy this day with your dad. Mine passed away 4 months ago from alzheimer's. I miss him.

    Wow, you look just like your dad!

    I spend fathers day mowing the stupid lawn and doing some pool maintenance. I would rather have been listening to music but the grass was one foot tall...neglected for sure.
