I date my interest in photography to the gift of a small camera (an early Kodak box camera) from my grandmother many years ago. Today, after retiring from a career in education, my enthusiasm for creating and viewing fine-art photography is as strong as ever. I am mostly self-taught; I’ve benefitted from several highly valued teachers and mentors, most recently Elise Shapiro at the Silvermine School of Art, and much earlier Howe Derbyshire of Port Clyde, Maine. Once a Nikon user, I’m now a dedicated user of Fuji cameras.

My work focuses on Landscapes, Nature, Abstracts, and Fine Art. While my interests focus mainly on elements of nature, they are sufficiently broad that the occasional cityscape or architectural image shows up. Lately, I’ve become interested in digital design and constructed images using both photography and AI.
