Hello and welcome to my website.I am a self trained self taught 54 year old kid.As a teenager i took up photography as a way to fill up the time i found sitting around waiting for the next big thing in my life to happen.All the while not realizing that it was happening right under my nose or above it as that is where my camera goes.As my teenage years turned into manhood my ambitions turned to different priorities and the camrea was forgotten ,there were so many other more important things going on in my life .Marketing and selling my work was the farthest thing from my mind ,there were more important things such as meeting the mother of my children (30 years this september) The responsibilty of raising a family and providing for them consumed all of my time .But guess what ,they grew up and left the nest and i have discovered the camera again.In a world gone mad over information and being able to access that info on the computer changed everything for me.Now i do admit i am very computer challanged ,and will be for quite sometime but it is so much fun learning that it is almost addictive Please feel free to browse my portfilio and comment good or bad about my work .I would love to hear from you
