Mike

Mike was sitting on an Elizabeth Park bench with a Nikon camera and a BIG lens.
He is retired on disability after a career as a "Jack of all trades."


Now, he likes to take photographs, but -- like me and maybe like you -- he has so many
photographs it is hard to find the ones he wants.

    That problem is easily remedied... take more portraits like this one.

    Yup! I thought I had a good filing system until I tried to find a particular photo.

    Yes I do have a 'Mike' problem, way too many photos and a non existing order system :) Really good portrait, Mike looks wonderfully relaxed.

    Good crop, full of personality. But there must be more to the story. How did a retired handyman on disability (which doesn't pay much) afford a Nikon with a big lens?

    Good portrait!
    I wonder if that's a new freelance occupation: digital photographic librarian?
