I haven’t been on for awhile. Taking a break? Not really, but just haven’t been on for a few reasons. A couple being I have been working on my book and then life just happens. I visited Urgent Care recently. Now, I am back to normal, if that’s what we want to call it *laughing*.
On the creative side of things, Born Free 16 happened a couple of weeks ago and Mr. Michael Lichter, world renowned motorcycle lifestyle photographer, graced me with his presence at the house for the event. I shot a couple of photos for the blog here on the Leica. Just watching anyone with photographic hands amazes me. Inspiring to say the least and motivated me out of the dull-drum I was in after surgery. You can check out his history and photographs on his website here→ Michael Lichter Photography .

I really enjoy watching photographers at work. This photo shows Michael and another photographer. The name of the other is unknown. They are looking at the phone pics just as seriously as a camera. It reinforces my belief in using whatever is available to take a photo and preserve the moment. Even though her cameras are hanging around her, she is using her phone to communicate through photos. The beer tucked under her arm caught my attention, and she had an irresistibly cute charm about her.

On another note, I’ve been making updates to the site here and there. I’ve reorganized a couple of menu categories to make navigation easier and updated the home page. Hopefully, it improves the experience for everyone. Feeling much better has given me the energy to get things done. Thanks to those who sent messages—I’m feeling great and ready to dive into more photos.
Til next time,
Thanks for stopping in,

Lulu: “Long time no see! Sorry to hear about the Urgent Care visit, we don’t like going to the vet and I can’t imagine you do either!”
great nails, tatts, and vibe here-
She really had it all.
yes – and the photo is packed with even more – like the phone and other person. etc
I love your black and white images of Lichter. My, oh, my-he sure does love motorcycles! He has an awesome variety of photographs of them on his site. I’m glad you’re on the upswing, Kathleen Jennette. 🙂
Thank you so much Nancy. You always give me a positive push upwards. I very much appreciate that. Yes, in the network of the biking lifestyle Michael is a pioneer of photographing it. He’s been doing it for over 40 years in a serious journalist way. It just amazes me. I’m glad you see that. Thank you for seeing that😊

Thank you John! I have been trying to do a bit here and there but I had some problems and decided to just take what I could and let the rest be. I guess we all need that. Who knew getting old was so destined to the unknown. ughghg…
You’re welcome! I’ll be 65 in December, Medicare time. I love the design of your website, jealous! Be well my friend. 🤙🏻😎❤️
