I'm retired after 32 years with the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and have become a rather avid amateur photographer that particularly enjoys wildlife photography. Fell in love with Africa on my first trip in 2001. Went again in2005 and 2006. Was hoping to make it a fourth time in 2008 but that didn't work out. But I will get there at least one more time. What an incredible place for anyone who loves wildlife. Africa does get in your blood and I hope that some of my photographs capture it's magnificense.

I Went to Homer, Alaska in 2009 to photograph eagles. Another incredible experience. I saw more eagles in 4 days than I have seen or will see in the rest of my lifetime. I hope some of my images will capture that as well.

Weather permitting, I do a lot of photography (mostly herons and a few egrets) from my boat on Lake Lanier in North Georgia. Photography from a gently rocking small boat can sometimes be quite challenging.

I appreciate any feed back on my photos, positive or negative. I learn from both.

He shows me pictures of places that I only wish I could photograph! He is an excellent photographer and he is a wonderful contact who always has something uplifting to say about your pictures. Thanks for being a wonderful contact and for sharing your talent with us!"
