Birthday portrait

[LesGediman]

Following the tradition of NFf, I'm submitting a birthday portrait made on May 1, 2014 when I attained the age of 88.

Usually I posted self-portraits, but this one was taken by my darling wife, Claudia. She has yet to join the PhotographyToday forum, but plans to over the weekend

OT: It's also a first try at posting on PTF.
Practice makes perfect! Magari!

"Would that it were so" in English. See how economical the Italian language can be, 1 Italian word = 5 English words.

I have registered with PhotographyToday----today!

Les and I will go out this afternoon and look for some spring flowers to prime our pumps and get active again. We're just come out of hibernation.

Craig Nelson visited with Les and me several times when he was in the St. Augustine area. So sad to lose him so young.

Glad his Nelsonfoto forum is being 'reborn with a base of NFf members, many I have interacted with in the past.
