Retired from a 42 year newspaper career, 5 as a photoengraver and 37 as a news photographer. A great career that I wouldn't have traded for anything, well maybe a few million $$$, no, just kidding. It was like having a front row seat to daily living, in whatever form it took.

    The Blackbird says:

    "John's photos bear the unmistakable mark of an experienced craftsman. His slice-of-life compositions have the effect of transporting me to the time and place where the images were taken, and sometimes the action captured in them makes them appear as though the subjects could spring into life. I learn something new from each shot, whether by studying the image or the associated detailed properties. Wonderful stuff. Enjoy!"
