The last couple of months have been challenging, four weeks of fighting pneumonia, four weeks of physical therapy for back issues, stenosis, and general recovery from all the above.  Getting old stuff!  I’m better and did manage to make a trip, the first week of October, to the UP of Michigan with, a dozen friends, to shoot the fall color! This year’s color was wonderful and so was the fellowship with great brothers, sisters and friends!  I was a little rusty, but I wanted too share some off my better images with all of you!

 

Some of our group working the color!

 

Tony Rogers

…..and of course jack Graham!

 

Hoper you enjoyed these!

 

Blessings,

    All those pics made me smile. The true techniques of Bill Fortney, just classic. So glad you made it out and good news on you feeling better. It’s hard to keep a god man down. Love you Brother.

    “legend – a genre of folklore (believed or perceived) to have taken place in past human history. Narratives in this genre may demonstrate certain qualities that give the tale verisimilitude and may be transformed over time to keep them fresh and vital. Many legends operate within the realm of uncertainty, never being entirely believed by the participants, but also never being resolutely doubted – they are sometimes distinguished from myths and at other times they are not!!!”

    Describes me perfectly, “many legends operate within the realm of uncertainty!”
