Preserving my Inheritance

Its been a project I have been working on for months and its still not complete. However I am happy that I am making progress. Today I have a good selection of pictures of my ancestors which I proudly display in my house. The oldest picture is of my grandmother's grandfather dating back to the early 1900's. Each of the pictures have a story to tell. I think its such a lovely way to preserve old memories. The albums lie buried in a corner, or on the hard drive whereas this makes it so much more real :-) Its a legacy that needs to be preserved for the generations to come, and I am excited to do my part !!

My mothers picture below, taken in the Mughal Gardens of the Rashtrapathi Bhavan ( presidents palace) while she was staying there with her parents, is my favourite.

Wow, what a wonderful collection of photos! And what stories to go with all of them, I'm sure.
