Hi Richard,
Despite my many years (60+) years of shooting assignments back and forth
across CANADA and about the world, the most important photographs without
question are those in our family albums! Plus a couple of my DAD'S albums
with pictures before WW2 and my late wife Irene's dad roughly the same era.
These are in storage and in the seniors home where I now live. The bulk of
my WORK images (are in the National Archives of CANADA. Their number of
images in the collection to date?) "216,000 images!") The largest photo
collection in the history of CANADA by a single photographer!! That is the
Archives counted amount without another 50,000 in my personal files! Keeping
track and making use of it is quite the chore to say the least. Although I
don't have anything to do with the ARCHIVE FILES other than sending new
material removed from my personal files! 
But then I'm still shooting a series on the inhabitants near (200
f0lks)living here in the palace as we call our PARKWOOD accommodations! :-)
I still put together slide presentations for lectures and DVD's for
teaching.
I will be making some new DVD's available that will be released on the LUG
shortly. My DVD's have been sold about the world for a number of years!
cheers,
Dr.ted Grant O.C.

10 years after we go to the great fixer bath in the sky, unless you are a
fabulously famous photographer, the most important and treasured images
that you will leave behind are the family photos.
