Happy Birthday Chuck!


Happy Birthday Chuck!

If you wander through Pike Place Market you may come across the wonderful work of professional photographer Chuck Pefley, and if you're lucky, Chuck himself. We came upon him just after he'd finished a conversation with a customer and was starting to take a reading break in his Market day stall. I've met Chuck a number of times since he joined the City Daily Photo Blog family with One a Day, Mostly Seattle. The longtime Seattle resident is not only a skilled photographer, but also a Vespa scooter enthusiast active in the Westenders Scooter Club, and a very fun and nice guy who loves the beautiful scenes, friendships and adventures his travels near and far bring him (often illustrated in his beautiful prints). Today is Chuck's birthday and I'm sending best wishes for a wonderful day!

Hope it's an excellent birthday, Chuck, and the year to come presents you with at least 365 delightful images to photograph.

Chuck Pefley said...

Aw, gee ... Thank you Kim. Very sneaky of you to show how I really spend my time -:)

Wayne said...

He doesn't look like he's working very hard.

I hope Kim hasn't figured out when my birthday is.

Kate said...

Thank you, Kim, for this photo of Chuck. It's a study in concentration! It would be so wonderful if I could approach his technical skill...I can dream!

Aw, gosh, missed his birthday, but will write to him now. This is almost how I found Chuck when I sneaked up on him at the Market. He was fiddling with his phone and I asked him if he was checking Yankee-in-Belgrade....

Fun fellow and I look forward to more meetings with him and you in Seattle.
