About My Photography
Photography is one of my favorite hobbies. It's a chance to combine my knack for
the technical and analytical with my love of aesthetics. While I'm nowhere near
a professional photographer with all the gadgets and huge volume of work, I still take
each photo fairly seriously, and feel ecstatic after having made a beautiful image
(one that I can't stop looking at, and think, "Damn, that's cool!".
It will appear through my work that I tend towards landscapes, but I think that
only reflects my love of the outdoors and nature. You will also notice that I
photograph important people in my life as well. I photograph what I love. And when I
love what I photograph, the images usually
turn out well - if I have my head on straight. ;)
PLEASE look at my photos, and even tell me what you think. I very much enjoy the
opinions of other people with a love for beautiful images. If you would like to use
one of these photos for something - just ask.
It's interesting to know what people are doing. A woman from Australia, who grew up
in the northeast once asked me if she could put one of the images of Lye Brook Falls
in a sort of life-history scrapbook for her daughter. How cool is that?!
Guido was the focus of this trip! His genius wife and my good friend Marla had been planning this surprise birthday party in Lake Mead for him for over 9 months! While Lake Mead was the main destination, there were a lot of people between there Port Townsend that I had not seen in quite some time. Avoiding the road weariness of long road-trips-past, I opted for going very slow and seeing lots of great people on the way. This worked splendidly! I never tired of the road and the visiting time I got with friends, including Guido and our fellow NM cohorts (13 at least), was extremely enjoyable. Thanks to all you wonderful people! Obviously, one of my focuses on this trip was my photography, so there's a lot of photos in here from different places of natural beauty I visited along the way. I hope you enjoy!
