My photography typically focuses on nature, wildlife, and animals. On specific occasions like sports events I photograph people. Probably the least often subject I photograph would be any type of cityscapes. I love seeing beautiful photography of cities. Skylines of cities can be majestic. Photography of life unfolding in the concrete jungle can be inspiring. For me cities simply don’t inspire me to get my camera out, most of the time. I… Read More

When I think about photography I have two overriding philosophies. Take photographs whenever you can. Use whatever camera you have to take the photos. In photography circles a lot of debate and conversation can be had about when is the best time to create photography.

Going to see cool artwork is always fun. I also enjoy photographing artwork. It gives me a way to explore the artwork in more detail on my own time. And I can then share the artwork I have been able to see with all of you. I went to the Corning Museum of Glass with my camera. The use of the Nikon 60mm f2.8 macro lens allowed me to get up close… Read More

I love public art. Public art gives so much flavor and emotion to a place. Having artwork on display for all to see helps to bring out vitality. I also think that public art is inspiring and aspirational. Being able to walk through a community and see artwork on the regular allows people to think more openly about art. People see art as a real tangible thing in life. Not just something… Read More

One thing that is always interesting is to use my photography to capture other works of art. My father is a painter. I have gone to some of his exhibits and photographed his artwork as it hangs on the wall. It is interesting to see if I can create a fun take on the original piece of art using my camera. I find that if I shoot the original piece at a… Read More
