I'm a 60-something, born-again, computer geek, photographer, musician and one-time sword fight choreographer. I own a web development business, Picks Pix & Web, that incorporates photography. I live & work at photography with my wife Carolyn and our kitty, Casmir (though the work ethic of the kitty is questionable at best) in Davenport, Iowa. Our children are grown and raising families of their own, which of course means grandkids for us to love and spoil.

I've been capturing images, still & movie/video, for over 50 years now. I entered a dark room for the first time at age 13 and have been fascinated with the art of photography ever since. My first cameras were Kodak's - a Brownie and an 8mm movie camera. At the dawn of the digital photography age, I switched to digital and never looked back at film.

I like to photograph people, places & things - I guess that means everything - with a special interest in macro, nature, architecture, candid portraits & the odd. Most recently I have begun leveraging my Photoshop skills in creating digital art compositions.
