I'm retired from teaching, and enjoy taking pictures, although I`m not as active as I used to be. I usually carry a Sony A7 (I or II) or a small Olympus E-PL9, and occasionally I'll be out with a Fuji X-M1 or a Sony RX100 II, too. I still edit the RAW files in Lightroom 6.14 (recently re-installed using Adobe offline activation).

 

I grew up in rural eastern Pennsylvania, lived and worked in northern California, and spent most of my career in Bonn, Germany. We have also lived in Potsdam and Bamberg, Germany.

I rarely write testimonials, but John has a wonderful collection of photos from very scenic places in Germany. I have visited Potsdam and Bamberg, but not Bonn. Having served a three year tour in Germany with the US Army, I have a special place in my heart for the beauty there. He has done an admirable job of capturing much of that beauty. There is just something different about his photos that jump out at the viewer. Such a nice place to visit on your computer. I'll be back!
