My life has been filled with many ups and downs. So many trials, It used to be that when I had stress in my life I would just jump on my motorcycle and ride into the sunset. Now I just pick up my camera. For years I always admired photography and thought how incredible it would be to be able to capture a nanosecond of time and tell a story. I never imagined that I would be doing it. My dream now it to travel to far off places and capture the things that people tell stories about but rarely see. To visit locations like Alaska, New Zealand, The UK or Brazil. To document Gods great earth before we destroy it. That is my dream.

 

I appreciate all of my contacts and value their opinion of my work. I take it serious who I add as a contact. Their work must be exceptional. As far as favorites, I love shapes and lines, symmetrics. I adore B&Ws and vibrant colors. I see things differently and try to capture a little of that in my work. I love taking macros and giving the perception of it being larger than life. And recently I have fallen in love with the art of HDR's

 

I so, so appreciate the support I have already received from so many of you all around the world. I find it so breathtaking when I receive a comment from professional photographers as well as when my little Amethyst says "great shot Dad". It gives a certain bump of self worth. And there are no words to discribe the feeling when someone congradulates you for being on Explorer, especially when you find out there from the other side of the world. (love the UK!)

 

Thank you all so much for you comments and support. It is not taken lightly or overlooked.
