I am a native of the planet Brooklyn who up until recently, have been moving from here to there. I finally found my home. I am leaving the United States and moving to Calgary this summer. I started as a photo lab operator in the Army. I began in photography with a 4X5/ Speed Graphic. My first real camera was an Olympus OM-1 With a variety of lenses. I graduated to Nikon with an N90s then the F100 ( I always shot print film) I then converted to digital when I purchased my D300s in 2009. Between work and other responsibilities I allowed myself to get lazy. No more. I am inspired by other photographers like Anita Erdmann whom I am marrying. Denise Ippolito, Tony Sweet, Jack Lien , Arthur Morris, Gokhan Cukurova and many others. I love music and have attended many many concerts since I was a child. I still go to many every year. My record is 69 in one year.
