There comes a time in a photographer's life when he gets old if he lives that long.
I've lived that long, and now it's harder and harder to get out and shoot, and harder
still to stay at it more than a few hours. Bittersweet has replaced the adrenaline rush.

I see it's been ten years since I penned my last blog post. The photo challenges
ended in 2015. I completely forgot about it, until I saw it bookmarked in an old
links listing I hadn't seen for ten years. Such is life - too many distractions and too
much busyness. 

************************

I drove north of town this morning to photograph the racing at the Kingdon Drag Strip
west of Lodi. I've been shooting there for many years, but I can only walk around and
work it for an hour or so. At least I was able to sit down and rest a few times.

As I slow down, I'm thankful to God that I've had so many years full of energy and
stamina. I knew this time was coming a few years ago, so I'm taking it in stride.
God has been faithful in giving me a wonderful gift that I and others enjoy. 

And now we both know why it's been so long between posts!
