Straight Out Of Camera Week 21 "Remember"

This weeks theme was set by Loc and was "Remember"
I was struggling with this theme all week, I considered shooting a war memorial, and then changed my mind. I also considered shooting something to remind me of lost loved ones, and although I was fine doing this I wanted to avoid upsetting others so I abandoned that Idea too.

It wasn't until this afternoon that I sat down to spend some time with Max that the idea hit me. We were playing with LEGO and it used to belong to my brother and I when we were younger. So it set about a good trip down memory lane of me and my bro building stuff (And falling out about some rare pieces) and of the unrivalled pain of standing on this stuff barefoot :-)  Some of the bits in the box were still intact from stuff we had built many years ago. It's cool that even after getting on for 25 years old this stuff is now being enjoyed by my son.

So this is the image, this stuff set off a massive bout of sentimental memory for me, and I hope that Max gets as much fun and use out of it as we did.
It was shot using a C1980 summin Canon FDn 85mm f/1.8 if you're interested :-)
Check out the others guys stuff if you have 10 mins to kill and want a good read .
