portrait of my father

Going back through some old photos I found this portrait taken by 10 years ago this month. Dad had been battling cancer but was still in good spirits. I was flying back and forth between Seattle and Kentucky every week to care for him. One cold day I was able to take a few shots lit by the window light while he sat in his favorite chair.

He passed away sitting in that chair a few months later.

I wish I’d taken more photos of him.
