About Ken Richard

"Live more and more in the present, which is ever beautiful and which stretches far beyond the limitations of both the past and the future."

On 21 August 2016 I was married. The photos are in the album titled Wedding. It was a beautiful beginning and I am very happy.

I have also always been an accomplished musician by avocation. I play piano, violin, guitar, dulcimer, banjo, and electronic sampling keyboards that can sound like any instrument. I've written several hundred songs and I am a halfway decent sound engineer. My largest audience was 25,000, but there are alot of reasons, including limited talent, why I didn't do music for a living.

I am passionate about photography. I take photographs because, even though I am a skilled verbal communicator, I feel that words do not fully contain and express experience; and photography provides an alternative.

I am kind, generous, caring, thoughtful, romantic, and creative, with a good sense of humor. I like most kinds of music, and my favorite movie is "The Sheltering Sky". My favorite poet is Sara Teasdale. I do not smoke, drink, or do drugs, I am spiritual though not overly "religious" in a traditional sense. I am active and fit with many interests.
