In 2005, when I got involved with Flickr, I was very interested in forms of photography which captured light that our normal vision didn't allow us to see. I experimented with moving the camera with the shutter open ( my Light set ), with long exposure night photography ( my Night set ), and with lighting objects in the dark with a flashlight (some shots in my Still Lifes set ). Some of this experimentation was especially convenient for me due to the early morning I was working as a Seattle Metro bus driver then ( my Transit set ).

Recently, I've been into trying to capture landscapes on my frequent hikes.

The photographers and groups on Flickr have supplied me with instruction and new ideas to explore. Thanks to everybody!


Please do not be offended if I do not add you as a contact. I value your contributions and photos, but have more contacts than I can keep track of already!

    "What can I say about this gifted sensitive man? He's a gem, and sees clearly with his new camera....I feel honored to be so connected with him!

    I appreciate the fact that this photographer continues to experiment and develop his own style. He seems to do this with discipline and direction and uses his own lifestylr to do so. I know he will continue to grow!"
