I took the pictures in the seventies - this was the time when I began to photograph and my family members were my first photo-victims. But that was not a problem, because in my family there were always plenty of occasions to press the shutter button. To the bizarre quirks of my family it belonged, grimaces to cut. Especially my father, but also my sister, my brother and I were pretty good in it. Also there were often funny situations at my family gatherings or other occasions (with or without alcohol), where funny facial features emerged. So I hope they animate a little to smile about.
