I am a part-time professional photographer. I love landscape, seascape and wildlife photography. This has been a passion of mine for as long as I can remember, and will be for as long as I can click the shutter. I try to photograph an image and present it as close to reality as possible. However, I realize that a camera doesn't necessarily project the image as the eye sees it. With today's technology, I am able to adjust a photographic image to what I saw while taking the photograph. That's not to say I don't work sometimes in a more abstract or "artistic" direction. Some may call me a photographic artist. That is what I am.

Same Ole' Thing! Or is it! "Yosemite"

I've been told by many photographers that photographing something like the Yosemite is not so interesting. Or, it's iconic. "It's already been done"! But yet, every photographer that has the time or the opportunity, will get out there and take their own images of this spectacular area. I myself, have been to the Yosemite a number of times and I still take pictures of the same thing over and over. Trying to better the last one I took. But the main reason I do it over and over is I want to get the one someone else doesn't have. Each time you go to the Yosemite, the season is different or the weather is different. That's what makes an image different. I have met someone each time I go to the Yosemite, with some suggestions on something I haven't gotten yet. Or a technique I haven't used. It's exciting! So if someone tells you that the image you take isn't all that interesting because it already been done, take it anyways. Try to make it as different as possible. Make it your own, but you know the person you're listening to has the images their selves. Friday, May 20th, 2011, I made another trip to the Yosemite, and here are some of the images I took. Enjoy!
