A Big Yamaha...

I met Ken and his wife at a yard sale.  Ken said that his wife made him buy the motorcycle because she wanted to ride.  Being retired, he thought he was too old for this, but he did as she asked.  Ken said he and his brother rode small Harley's when they were young.  I told him about how I idolized the Honda 50 that the kids' down the street had (Sue's cousins:  Jeff and Greg).

I had been wanting a portfolio portrait of a motorcycle rider and here was my chance.  Ken graciously agreed to pose for the camera behind his big Yamaha.  His bike was too big to fit in the door of my studio, but I'm hoping to someday get my neighbor, Mitch, to bring his Harley in for a shoot.
