The Jakob Guterch Family

To celebrate the opening of a brand new version of Robert Belas Photography and its Blog page, I thought it fitting to remember my lineage, specifically my parents, Helene and Michael, and my maternal grandparents, Catherine and Jakob Guterch. All four of these fine people played more than significant roles in my development, both as a person and as a photographer, musician, and scientist. As a tribute to them,their lives have been chronicled in “The Jakob Guterch Family”, a self-published book available on Blurb (https://www.blurb.com/b/8602514-the-jakob-guterch-family).

I hope you enjoy this blog and the new features and design to the Robert Belas Photography website. There are more changes in the offing, so please stop by frequently to see what’s new. (And, please tell your friends. Thank you.)
