I can't remember when I did not have a camera nearby. In 1962 I landed a job shooting for a local newspaper and then took stills for my college in the P.R. Department. From those contacts I got my dream job shooting news for San Diego television in 1964. Ensuing years brought VTR's, live shots and now the revolutionary digital video news gathering and editing. In the past fews years I have returned to my roots and I am endeavoring to sharpen those rusty skills. Thank you for dropping by!

    "Ben is one of the nicest people I’ve met on Flickr. He always has a kind word of support when visiting my photos and I always look forward to seeing his images. He is extremely creative and adds a wonderful sense of humor through his titles and descriptions. His support of my Jimmy Fund Walk for cancer, even though we have never met, shows the depth of his kind heartedness. He is one of the people that make Flickr such a great site to learn and get inspired to try new things in a supportive environment. Thank you Ben!"

    "Ben is in my opinion what makes Flickr so cool.

    For over 30 years, I have seen his name in the credits and watched his newsworthy video on San Diego TV news only to discover his amazing skills at still photography here in Flickrland and continue to be amazed at his adept creativity and wonderful captures. Every new image is eye candy and I always look forward to the next upload!"
