Specializing in outdoor photography to provide you with beautiful, high-quality prints. My photos come from outdoor locations in North and Central America, Europe, Tanzania, Australia, and New Zealand. I like to photograph scenery (especially sunrise and sunset), birds and wildlife, flowers, and underwater locations.

I look for the most beautiful area with the larger scene around me for what will be an outstanding photograph. I judge my own photos by whether I'd be willing to look at it forever on my own walls.

I've photographed the outdoors for 30+ years and have a large portfolio (only a fraction is on my website to date).

I accept commisions. One that contributed much to my porfolio was a request for a highly-red sunset taken from just west of Roseville. I spent two months watching for the right sky conditions. You can see the resulting panorama on my website.
