BIO, EXHIBITIONS, SALES, AVALIBILITY, ETC

I have been taking photographs for over 40 years, one of my main passions and avocations. Only in the last five years, however, have I begun to exhibit and sell my fine art photographs to the public. I was trained in black and white and in the 1970s and 1980's I took primarily medium and large format photographs and developed and printed them in my own darkroom. This work was a blend of photo-journalism, portraits and landscapes. For the past 15 years, my work has been exclusively digital with a mix of black and white and color images. I am primarily self-taught, however, I have learned a great deal from fellow photographer friends and colleagues and a few photography courses over the last three decades. Over the years, I have also been influenced by a wide variety of gifted, dedicated, and inspirational photographers and artists.

Having trained on a large format view camera where each photograph can take 20 minutes or more to compose and shoot, I learned to slow down, look carefully, and pay attention. This process leads to fewer yet better quality images that focus on interesting patterns in nature. The subtleties of color, shadows and light and other intriguing visual features that might otherwise be overlooked come to the forefront.

The Work:

The sample photographs on this web site span 25 years with the majority taken in the last five years. Most are landscapes and images from nature. Others are of people and include some portraits as well as some photo-journalist work. Other series on the site are: Still-life images of flowers and vegetables, 'Reflection" photographs many taken from my kayak on local rivers, Black and white images, Close up /abstract images of Ice, Panoramic images, Close up photographs of sunflowers, and two series of images from recent trips to New Zealand /Australia & Vietnam.


Thanks
