​While some form of photography has been part of my life since my early days in the United States Air Force in the '60's, it wasn't until I received a gift subscription to Outdoor Photographer magazine in 2000 that my interest in outdoor photography really began to grow.

I'm seldom without my camera so most of my images have developed close to home in Central and Upstate New York... the Finger Lakes and Adirondack regions.  However, I've been fortunate in recent years to be able to travel to what many consider prime photography locations such as the coast of Maine, southeast Alaska, the central coast of California, Arizona, Vermont, the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia and Florida.

Still, as enjoyable as these locales are to photograph, it is always nice to get back home and to recognize the “beauty in our own backyard.”

For the most part, I take the photos that work for me, catch my interest, and will look good on the walls of my home and office.  Still, it's a thrill to have others enjoy my images and to even want to hang them in their homes or offices.
 
Probably the greatest personal benefit of my photography has been my recognition of the natural beauty the good Lord has blessed us with, that’s all around us.  It makes little difference – sunsets, waterfalls, ice storms, wildflowers, majestic mountains, local parks, ocean side cliffs, or neighborhood streams – His beauty is all around us . . .we only need to see it.

While everyday, photography becomes a bigger part of my life, until just recently when I closed my custom publishing business, most of my livelihood has come from work as a magazine writer and editor. For several years now, my photography has been focused on leading nature photography workshops and creating images for gallery display and sales.

I currently lead multi-day workshops ranging from the High Peaks of the Adirondack Mountains in Upstate New York to the picturesque  Shenandoah National Park in Virginia. You'll also find frequent one-day workshops on a variety of subjects, typically with the entry level and intermediate level photographer in mind on my workshop schedule.
