Mom had me scan in my grandfather's slides. Among a lot of "here is everyone standing in front of a car, standing in front of a house" shots, there were some gems. These are all either Kodachome or Ektachrome ranging from the mid 60s to mid 70s. Amusingly, almost every picture of my grandfather was out of focus. Much like me, he couldn't get anybody else in the family to focus a camera. img384 by mattphilpott734, on Flickr  img464 by mattphilpott734, on Flickr  img488 by mattphilpott734, on Flickr  img699 by mattphilpott734, on Flickr  img344 by mattphilpott734, on Flickr They took a trip out west in the early 70s that looked amazing flipping through the slides, but it turns out my grandfather was so intent on making time in the car he forced my uncle (10-11 at the time) to shoot these beautiful, sprawling landscapes out the window of a moving RV. Almost every single one is useless. Also in that album for the NASCAR minded, some very early shots of Martinsville Speedway.

ExecuDork posted:Sorry to hear about your dad, he certainly had some cool pictures. Also, you should definitely shoot that old SLR yourself. Seconding this. I inherited my dad's old OM-10 a while back and shooting my kids with the same camera my dad used to shoot us has a nice warm circle of life feel to it.
