Thank you for taking time to visit my website!   Photography is not just my interest, it is truly my passion.  I guess you might say "It's not what I DO, it is who I AM."  For the past 30 years, I have loved photographing people, nature, architecture, scenics, and still-life, capturing the beauty and wonder of the world around us.  I have also been involved with and/or started numerous photographers' groups and clubs over the years, and have taught courses in photography ranging from basic to advanced photography, portraiture. lighting, color and B&W darkroom work, composition, low light photography, and studio photography.

The best way to judge any photographer is to look at examples of their work.  I have provided many examples of my photography right here on this website.  Please check out my example photos below as well as the various gallery sections for my people, pets, products, commercial, and fine art photography.

I'm not really limited to one particular "style" of photography.  For my art photography, I tend to create images with rich color, dramatic lighting, and simple composition.  

I love the challenge of encountering a subject and "seeing" the beauty in what I encounter, and then capturing that in a photograph.   While photographs can be "created", constructed and contrived from a pre-planned envisioned image, I prefer to rely on my ability to "see" the image as I encounter it.   That's not the only way I work, but it is my preferred method of working. 

'"It's not what you look at that matters, it's what you see."
  - Henry David Thoreau

My practice of watching for "the" photograph in any scene, has given me a greater awareness and appreciation of the world around me, even beyond my photographic endeavors.  Even if I don't have a camera with me, I tend to see the world through photographic eyes.
