*** Any DC metro area Flickr photogs interested in getting together for a nature/landscape shoot? ... Flickrmail me!! ***
Have a question or are interested in purchasing one of my photographs? Great!! Please message me via FlickrMail or visit my WEBSITE or FACEBOOK page for more information.
I love the outdoors, nature, hiking, traveling and experiencing new cultures. Like so many DC-area residents I'm a transplant, via New Mexico, upstate New York and Long Island. You can often find me roaming regional parks, gardens and waterways with camera and tripod in tow.
I believe the world has so much more to offer than what you can see, even though it is here in this Flickr place where we all share our best interpretations of our individual visions. Photography is a hobby that I enjoy, strive to learn more about, and have a profound respect for.
I appreciate all your wonderful comments and will always do my best to return the courtesy!! I so much enjoy being an active member of this Flickr community.
To all of you who notice and acknowledge my photo titles, thank you. Yes, they are all lyrics from Beatles songs…their immense catalog plays on repeat in my head. The only real connection between my photos and these lyrics is, well, me. But I think that if either leaves you with a smile, interesting thought, or song stuck in your head, then that’s an even better impression to take away. I now and then slip in a photo title from lyrics other than the Fab Four...probably something I am currently enjoying or feeling a connection to. I feel that I actually talk more about music in my photo descriptions than I do about the said photo and I enjoy when others take part as well.
I'm plagued with perpetual wanderlust...

That's (hungry) me...please say Hello if you see me out & about!!


Thanks so much for visiting!!
Please, do not use any of my photos without my permission. Not too much to ask, right?

Just Emi says:
"JP is unique. His photostream is full of flower shots that are pure magic, along with a few random amazing landscape shots. He is one of the most artistic, creative and interesting people I have 'met' on Flickr. I'm always happy to see he has uploaded something new, because I know I'll see something that I love. He also has great taste in music ;)"
