A photographer in search of unique images

About

Photography has always captivated me. I am passionate about the ability to freeze time, arrange scenes, and manipulate light to realize a vision. When I photograph a scene, I envision its final presentation; image capture and post-processing are my means of bringing my imagination to life. After a 37-year career in public sector engineering and organizational strategy, I am focused full-time on uncovering dynamic and thought-provoking images. Currently, my interests are exploring and capturing the diverse landscapes of the Western US - from the rugged mountains and plains of Colorado to the arid deserts of Utah, New Mexico, and Arizona.
