19.12.18 Portrait of the "Artist" As An Older Man

By Scott Shephard

I’m not much into selfies though I will occasionally take a selfie and post it to rib those who take selfies. Sorry. Frankly, I have always felt better behind the camera and I think I look better with a camera providing cover. But I am observing my 66th birthday today and so . . . why not! This photo, incidentally, was taken a few minutes after I took this photo of the Little Moreau River valley. That one’s a better photo.

As for getting older, I will say that I like it. I have my health. I have the means and the will to continue to learn and explore. I have wonderful friends and a good family. And I have a better than perfect wife. What more could a person ask for?
