Seeing 2011 (#51)

For your consideration: a casual, candid portrait of my father, as he sat in my condominium's living room enjoying a Sunday morning chat with my wife and mom.

With relatively little advanced notice, my parents lovingly made the four-hour journey from their wine-country home to my wife's and my abode the day before, to support, honor and celebrate a significant personal anniversary of mine. It was a very moving weekend, healing, loving and joyful, and a good time filled with laughter, abundant food and soulful nourishment was shared all around.
