Portraits

I was itching to do a portrait and combined the face of my father under the hat of a retired military officer. My Dad's face kind of crept in there unintentionally. He has been gone for almost 10 years now. He enjoyed life and had many interests until he passed at 80, including computers, getting his private pilots license and playing tennis in the Senior Olympics! His enthusiasm for life is a great example for me. As I am getting older, I feel that there are still many things to explore. Life can be good, people are interesting and you can choose how to shape your attitude. Thanks Daddy!
