Me in a tweet: I like photography, hiking, boxing, skiing, kitty cats, travel, baklava, sunrises, red, Purell, hip hop, hunting, Bach, autumn, and pesto.

The photo that got me hooked on photography:


My gear: Nikon D3 with 85/1.4 and 24/2.8, and an Olympus E-P1 with a Voigtlander 40/1.4.

Where I've been:
(I went to most of these places before I got into photography, or on business trips, during which I had no time to snap any shots - So they're on my re-visit list.)


Favorite places: South island of New Zealand, North Cascades National Park in Washington, Banff National Park in Alberta, Patagonia, and Muerren Switzerland.

Some local Washington state drives on my "to go" list:
The Pflug Mansion near Wauconda, Bodie, Cheesaw, Molson, and the Palouse.

National Parks on my list to visit: Glacier Montana, Dry Tortugas, Grand Canyon, Great Basin Nevada, White Sands (National Monument), Grand Teton, Mesa Verde (and the Anasazi Ruins), Zion, Joshua Tree, Black Canyon of the Gunnison, Great Sand Dunes Colorado, Crater Lake Oregon, Denali, Glacier Bay, and Katmai.

Other places on my list to visit:Scotland, Ireland, Nepal, Machu Picchu, the fjords of Norway, Silver City Idaho, Multnomah Falls, Santorini, and the Cinque Terre.
