I'm a child of the 80's. Born and raised in Minnesota, I escaped for a couple of years after high school, only to happily return. I have been skateboarding since 1985, and still do, off-and-on, ever since. I also attempt to golf, and cannot seem to get my handicap below about a 14.

I've been taking photos since my junior year in high school, when we had graphics classes. I believe the teacher in 10th grade was Mr. Madden, but the second level course, which I was luckily enough to get into in 11th grade, was Mr. Skunberg - aka Gary Graphics. It was a 2-hour class - with photography, screen printing and offset printing. It was also one of the first introductions to the Macintosh computer, which I still use daily.

I'm happily married, with a 6 year-old daughter and a 2-year boy, who will both grace my Flickr account with their faces off-and-on. They are the light of my life - without them, I don't know where I'd be.

    "I met Dave through a local photography club and he has made a dramatic impact on my photography ever since.

    Dave has always been there to field photography questions, give me advice, and even lend me equipment when I needed it. His knowledge and generocity have been a huge asset to the improvement of my own work and creativity.

    He also just happens to be a great artist. and I hope to be able go on more than one photo outing with him next summer.

    Keep up the great work Dave, you continue to inspire and motivate me."

    "Dave is a gifted artist, remarkable technician and treasured friend. He has the passion and skill to put both the graphical excellence and the touch of a true artist into his work. You can see his skills as a graphic artists come out in his work and that skill raises his photographic art to a higher level.

    I had the opportunity to travel with Dave on a road trip out west and that experience allowed me to get to know Dave at a level that lets me know what drives his art.

    Keep up the great work Dave."

    St Paul Paul says:

    "Dave is a truly dedicated photographer and artist. He also happens to be a really nice guy who works at the same company I do. We've spent many happy hours there talking about focal lengths and HDR ... but none of this has prepared me for the sheer drive he brings to his work. Someone who a couple of years ago didn't really think of photography as a hobby, Dave now rises at dawn and drives for miles to get the right shot. He maintains a list of possible locations a mile long. He goes back to a site again and again to make sure he's caught the essence. He experiments with his techniques, and works hard to master new skills. And it shows! His photostream is full of marvelous work! And the best news is, he's just getting started!

    I couldn't be more tickled than to be Dave's friend and fan. Take a look at his stream and you'll be one too."
