I am most likely to be photographing outdoors. My favorite subjects include New England landscapes, Maine coast seascapes, lighthouses, architecture, and wildlife. My goal is to better "see" the world around me and capture New England's unique beauty in a way that can be shared and provide inspiration to others.
I live in the rural New England town of Athol, Massachusetts with my wife. Our two grown children have "left the nest". During my career as a craftsman / woodworker, I have built guitars, harpsichords, and fine furniture.
My interest in photography began during the time I was in college, majoring in natural resource conservation. I was involved in many outdoor activities, and found myself drawn to landscape / nature photography. This passion was rekindled a dozen years ago. I took a course in advanced digital imaging at a local college, and subsequently purchased my first digital camera. I was drawn to digital photography because of the degree of personal control and creativity this medium affords. I have been shooting digital ever since. I enjoy both visible light and infrared photography.
My images have been exhibited in galleries in New England, and as a member of Digital Photography Internationale, my work has been shown in galleries across the United States. As a teacher, I am on the faculty of the Sharon Arts Center, NH, and the Petersham Art Center, MA where I teach workshops on photography and digital imaging.
