As we age, if we are doing this life thing right we grow and we change, hopefully for the better, over the years. Our interests, beliefs, and values might change. The things we enjoy change. We develop new passions and some things maybe fall aside. When I was in college I thought my real interest was in psychology. But that interest could only thrive in an academic setting.

I enjoy photographing anything that creates a sense of texture. This can appear in so many different ways. From man made substances to natural occurring phenomena. From enormous mountains to tiny grains of sand. One thing I often feel drawn to is ice. Ice can occur in so manny different shapes, sizes, and forms. Ice occurs in so many different circumstances.

I really like working with colors and shapes. Contrast of dark and light. Details versus softness. I think that is what I find when I see a photo of an inanimate object that I really like. There is a quality of contrast about it. There is an interplay of two things that don’t quite go together.

And we also think about aspects of life we would choose to pursue or not. Get married? Have children? Own a home or rent? Live in a city or in the country? These are… Read More

When it comes to our creative pursuits, we all gravitate towards different things. I obviously gravitated towards photography. Maybe you are a painter or a sculptor. But even within each type of creative endeavor there are sub categories and niches that we fall into. Some we like and some we avoid. Maybe you write fiction novels. Or Maybe you only write short poems. For me there are certain types of photography I… Read More
