Michael E RichardsonMichael is a retired Professional Engineer with a career spanning service as an Army officer, an industrial engineering manager, a designer and builder of US Embassies and an Operational Test Director for the Department of Homeland Security. Taking u photography in retirement, he captures the natural beauty of his home's environment as well as many of the images of life in Williamsburg, Virginia. A small pond near his home enticed a Blue Heron and many other water fowl to model for his benefit and for your enjoyment. The joy of sharing these images in BEAUTIFUL BLUE & YOU, BEAUTIFUL BLUE & YOU . . . TOO, and BEAUTIFUL BLUE & ME, provides the motivation to record new experiences every day. Michael co-authored BEAUTIFUL BLUE & YOU, with his wife, Melinda, as their first series of nature/self-help books. Their second book, BEAUTIFUL BLUE & YOU . . . TOO, reflects a continuing love of nature and relevance of changes that will enhance our growth and development throughout a lifetime. Completing the trilogy, BEAUTIFUL BLUE & ME, our first children's edition, inspires young minds to grow, think, and enjoy a lifetime of happiness and joy through their curiosity and innocence.
