I started doing professional photography back in the 80's, mostly portraits and weddings using a medium format body and film back loaded with Kodak Vericolor Pro film.

When I got too busy, I took some time off from paying photo jobs to pursue other interests. The break allowed me to devote time to other things I enjoyed. Activities such as photographing Great Lakes' shipwrecks, cave diving and other under water photography.

About 10 years ago, I re-discovered my love of photography, sold all my film equipment, disassembled my color darkroom and made the move to digital. My DSLR bodies are all Nikon as is most of my glass.

I finally got the time to set up a website for my photos, but time to update them as well as flickr is very limited.:

I wish that I had the time to scan in my shipwreck and cave diving slides from my underwater photography days, bought the scanner so now all I need is time.

If you favorite one or more of my photos, please leave comments to let me know what you like about them.

Please don't invite my pictures to be added to your group, if I have no access to the group.
