Seventy plus something retired academic professional with other interests. I value humor, intelligence and an adventurous spirit in others. I think I possess the same qualities. I appreciate beauty, which comes in many forms.

You must be an adult to see any of my private images. If you would like to see more, send me a flickr mail. Please don't ask if you have no pictures to share, this is a photo sharing environment.

Please don't show me web photos or pictures that don't belong to you. All the pictures here were shot by me, my wife, or friends. We are sharing original material and we want you to do the same.

I make an effort to try and caption most of my photos. I wish more people would do so. I don't even care of the captions are a fantasy or fiction even stretching the truth. I find that makes things more fun.

Note most of the pictures in my photostream are of an adult nature, especially those reserved for family and friends. If you aren't of age or are offended by nudity and sex this is not the right photostream for you. I readily admit that many of the photos here have been enhanced using Lightroom and Photoshop. I definitely enjoy plying around with those applications as way to enjoy photography. I just wish I was better at using them and the camera.
