Photography has been a creative passion of mine for over five decades. There is joy in experiencing the beauty of a place and, if one is fortunate, in capturing a moment in time that touches one's heart and illuminates the senses. There is joy in sharing this beauty with others. May the images you see here and on my website broaden your horizons and add more light to your life. “Cherish your visions; cherish your ideals; cherish the music that stirs in your heart, the beauty that forms in your mind, the loveliness that drapes your purest thoughts, for out of them will grow all delightful conditions, all heavenly environment; of these, if you but remain true to them, your world will at last be built.” ~ James Allen, "As A Man Thinketh" "Whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things." ~ The Apostle Paul in The Holy Bible, Philippians 4:8
