About Me
- Favorite Medium: art photography
- Statement: The magical effect of light on the Ohio landscape can only be fully appreciated when one has become aware of, and sensitive to, the unique characteristics of each of the four seasons - so distinct and separate here in the Midwestern United States. Steven Spielberg once stated that “light is life.” This is also how I approach my work with landscape and nature photography. My camera is my key that unlocks the door to the pleasing compositions and arrangement of elements that nature herself has already placed before us.
