Profile
City: Washington, d.c.
Country: United States
I am both a writer and a photographer, so a lot of my photographs contain writing of some form, it could be a short story or a personal reflection of what the photograph means to me, or the factual history behind the photograph.
I am co-host of the group ImageWriting. If you enjoy putting words to your work of art, please join us.
My profile photograph is revealing for it is a self-photograph taken shortly after changing my gender from male to female in September 2007.
A Place to Rest is a favorite photograph of mine. I will change this occasionally to show other favorite photographs.

The Fine Art of Photography
To have a work accepted into the The Fine Art of Photography is just as much of an honor as having that work featured, for this group only accepts approximately 2% of the large number of work submitted to them, and I consider it an honor when something of mine has been good enough to meet their high standard. Below are the works that I have had accepted into this fine group:
