The artist's statement
I started taking pictures of family vacations to national parks and other scenic areas many years ago. I began taking 35mm photos with a vintage Leica M camera in 1976. After using several point-and-shoot digital cameras, I bought my current DSLR camera in 2007 -- a Canon Rebel XTi. I use two lens, a UV filter, and extension tubes for close-ups. I have read several books and magazines on photography, to add to my own experience. I use Photoshop and other photo editing programs, but the purpose is always to best present the wonder and glory of Mother Nature.
Although my entry into commercial photography is recent, I have collected and studied the prints of other photographers for years and my home is full of art of all media. My ideas on composition and use of color have been informed by this collection. I occasionally use black and white, to emphasize texture or form, but my real passion is for the amazing color that nature has to offer.
