I appreciate your time in looking at my photos and profile page, but please, do not use my photos for any commercial use, with or without profit, without my permission.

Hope you enjoy my photos...for those of you more seasoned in photography than I am, any advice/kudos is much appreciated. I like knowing what works and what doesn't. I will try to keep up with the photos posted by my contacts as much as possible.

My photos are a reflection of my life, where I live, and the people I spend my time with. Although it's cliche in photography, I enjoy taking photos in nature, and the places I travel to. I post many photos here to share with friends and family who are at a distance as well, so not all of my photos are artistic, but have still have a quality that can't be measured.

When I'm not out taking photos, I enjoy running, reading, cooking, writing, learning other languages, movies, walking, hiking, complaining about the snow (for half the year), or using colorful language directed at my tv when I'm playing the occasional video game.

Current Equipment: Nikon D60, Nikkor AF-S DX 18-55mm lens, Sony DSC-S650, tripod, UV filter, polarizing filter.
