I'm a 72 year old man living in Palm Springs, California with Darek, my 38 year old husband.

We were part of a Triad until February 27, 2016 when Jerry, our loving 77 year old partner passed away.

I'm an eclectic photographer and usually have my Canon with me. I hope you enjoy my photos.

James is not only an awesome photographer, he is also a sage, a wit, and a storyteller. Visiting his photostream is always a delight. Some of his images have made me spit my coffee across my keyboard because of their hilarity, some have touched my heart with his sincere compassion, some of them have made me smile when I needed it most. And all of them inspire me by his love for life and for his partner, and remind me that life is supposed to be fun. Thank you James!

James has such a wonderful, positive energy that brightens my day whenever he visits. His clone shots and comments make me laugh. I recently reread his profile, and there was an update: "Life is good"...and it shows in his humor and warm personality.

What can I add to the other wonderful tributes here? I look forward to James' wild and wonderful views on the world we live in. His photos always leave me with a smile. The fact that he leaves lovely comments on other people's photos makes him even more of a love.
