Project 365 - Day 23 - My Dad

My Dad was, among other things, a Police Officer on the Metro Toronto Police Force for over 33 years.  We lost my father a couple of years back, and there hasn't been a day when I don't think about him.   Today's shot is in honour of my Dad.

This is his belt buckle. He used to wear it everywhere he went.  When he retired from the force, this served as his "badge" along with a gold shield that he kept in his pocket.  He never went anywhere without it.

Recently I got myself a belt that allows me to attach buckles to it.  I haven't started wearing this particular buckle just yet, but there will be a time when I break it out.

Here's the shot.
