I’m a middle aged Latvian Canadian living in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. It’s a midsized city 40 miles west of Toronto on Lake Ontario. My formal training is in engineering and Business. I’ve been seriously taking photographs and paintings since 1975. I find B/W film and digital photography my favorite medium. Recently I have decided to make my hobby my career.
