Photography enthusiast for over 40 years.

For 30 years, as a "photo walker" in Berks County, PA (See my blog about it). For many of those years, I typically had. Max, my 12-lb. mini dachshund with me.

Recent residences: Southwest FL, Northeast FL, and South Jersey.

In 2008, I published a book on French Creek State Park in Southern Berks County, PA.

I had/have an old photo journal blog called "Berks Awhile" which not only includes Berks County nature, but photos of day trips, local links, trail maps and a link to Blurb online bookstore where I share items for purchase.

My roster of cameras over the years: Canon R6II, and Canon R7, Canon 7DII, Canon 70D, Canon Rebel T3i (my first DSLR). Ultra-zooms: Canon SX30 IS, Canon SX20 IS, Panasonic Lumix FZ-28, Kodak Z812, Kodak Z612, Kodak Z740.

I found a lot of enjoyment with the ultra-zoom camera types for they offer good value, quality and are feature packed with a versatile zoom. Another draw is that they can easily be operated with one hand which is perfect considering Max is usually tugging on a leash with the opposite hand.

This is my Photostream.
