I was originally enrolled as a SHUTTERSTOCK contributor on January 28th 2019. Shutterstock is an American stock photography company with headquarters in New York City, founded in 2003 by Photographer Jon Oringer. With a library in excess of 200 milliuon royalty free stock photographs, I am delighted, and most grateful to have been accepted into the fold.
Having been passionate about photography since the age of seven years old, with a box brownie and black and white 120 roll film, these days I take a far more leisurely approach to my photographic exploits, a Nikon D850 FX Pro body as my trusted companion, I travel light with less constraints and more emphasis on the pure capture of the beauty that I see, more akin to my original persuits and goals some five decades previously when starting out. I would like to say a huge and heartfelt 'THANK YOU' to GETTY IMAGES, SHUTTERSTOCK, and the 27.377+ Million visitors to my FLICKR site.

Photograph taken in the glorious golden hour around sunrise at 05:36am on April 10th 2010 captured from the walkway overlooking the shingled beach off Lochside drive, in beautiful Sidney by the sea on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada.
Here, we are looking over towards Mt Baker in Washington State, USA from beautiful Sidney by the sea on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada. Also known as Koma Kulshan, (pronounced kō-ō’mah’ kool-shän’),she is an active glaciated andesitic stratovolcano in the Cascade Volcanic Arc and the North Cascades of Washington State in the United States, standing 3,286 metres tall and was first ascended in 1868, her last eruption recorded in 1880.
The name Mount Baker first appeared in print in Captain Vancouver’s 1798 narrative of his voyage around Vancouver Island. Legend has it that his third-lieutenant, Joseph Baker, was the first to spot the mountain while they sailed into Dungeness Bay on April 30th, 1792. Also known by the Lummi as Kwud-Shad, and Koba (meaning 'high mountain always covered with snow', was the Skagit name.

Several people have suggested that I need to do a few more self portraits. Well, I will eventually get around to doing something, but it is easier and probably more fun to dredge up these old photos. You can tell by the hair and glasses this is not a recent photo. This is from about 1986 and our trip to Cancun. Cancun was about 10 years old when we made our visit.
Anyway, you can see what I looked like in my youth (love those aviator glasses). In the not too distant future I will conjur up some new self portraits.
As an amateur photographer who enjoys street photography it’s only right that I should put myself out there to. The picture was taken by the light of my life!

Every once in a while, roadside stops yield the greatest surprise! Artist Kevin Beck was pulled over in Big Bend National Park, capturing the beauty of the area on his canvas, and was kind enough to allow me to photograph him at work. His paintings can be seen at kevinbeck.com/ .
Wanted to capture the movement of the feet by attaching small flashlights to his feet.
Unfortunately they didn't shine as bright as I was hoping, but ended up with a pretty decent shot.
Ah well, I'll try it again another time, with some damn bright lights!
Within a small woods on the west of town last September, I came upon a few remarkable examples where the light played uniquely upon the otherwise shadowed bushes.
Merseyrails units are currently the oldest stock in daytime use on the network, The Class 507's dating back to 1977, and the Class 508's four years younger. But Merseyrail doesn't have enough storeage space for the incoming 777's alongside the existing fleet, so off they go for recycling!

**New Mexico Madonna of the Trail** - National Register of Historic Places Ref # 06000151, date listed 3/21/2006
Jct. of Marble Ave. and 4th St.
Albuquerque, NM (Bernalillo County)
The New Mexico Madonna of the Trail is located at the southeast corner of Fourth Street and Marble Avenue in downtown Albuquerque, New Mexico along the former alignment of U.S. 66. The monument is surrounded by a landscaped park, which is sited on a block dominated by the city's federal courthouse.
The Madonna of the Trail monument, designed by German immigrant August Leimbach, was fabricated in 1928 of Algonite — a mix of crushed pink granite, stone, marble, Portland cement, and screenings of lead ore, poured into a mold and polished into its final form. The monument features a ten-foot high sculpture of a pioneer woman and two small children (Photo 4). The woman, depicted with a homespun dress, sunbonnet, and heavy boots, is captured in a firm mid-stride, her eyes intently focused on the horizon to the west. In one arm she carries an infant, while the other hand clutches a rifle. Another child, a small boy, clings to her skirt. Thistles surround her feet. The sculpture rests on a large square base that is six feet in height and weighs approximately twelve tons. Beneath the base is a five-foot deep foundation, three feet of which are below ground. The monument weighs five tons. (1)
The National Society of Daughters of the American Revolution (NSDAR) established a committee in 1911 to promote the highway that became the National Old Trails (N.O.T), and later, in 1926, Route 66. The NSDAR commissioned 12 identical statues (one for each state crossed by the N.O.T.), as a symbol of the courage of the pioneer women who stood by their families and helped tame the West. (2)

There are many neon signs competing for your attention on this Main Street of Yokohama Chinatown. One of the neon signs caught her eyes and I caught her expression with my camera!
