Photography is one of those things I do on the side, just for fun, to share my personal view of the world in a new way. And if I can combine taking pictures with a ride on my bike, then that's pretty much my idea of a perfect day!

The most important lesson that I've learned in photography is to work with what you see in your surroundings. Take a fresh look at whats around you and take interesting pictures. Here in New Jersey, I was frustrated until I realized that expansive landscapes, mountains, castles and abandoned mines were out of reach, but natural rural and urban shots were bountiful.

Work with your surroundings and show the world a unique view of the ordinary.
