About
My Background
I bought my first film camera in 1962 and have been taking photos since then. My home state of Michigan has landscape and wildlife that keep me inspired. I carry a camera and smartphone with me at all times. Here is a photo from a desert landscape nature photography workshop I taught in El Paso, Texas using my motorhome, "The Popemobile" as a mobile classroom.
Photography as Communication
I am a Michigan Master Gardener and enjoy photographing plants and flowers. My favorite location is the MSU Horticulture Garden and 4-H Children's Garden on the campus of Michigan State University.
Magazine Articles: Michigan-Out-Of-Doors
I have 30 years experience as a photojournalist working for newspapers and magazines. Here is a "Selfie" I used for the cover of an outdoor fishing magazine. I also have 20 years experience teaching digital photography at the college level to adults.
