I've had a passion for photography since I was a teenager.
Having recently devoted more time to taking pictures, I found Flickr while researching online photo sharing websites I have one word for Flickr-Inspiration! There is such a talented and diverse group of people on Flickr. That's what I love- expressing yourself any way you choose through photography. I've met many good friends and have learned much about photography since joining.When I am out shooting that is usaully one of my most peaceful and enjoyable experiences. It's wonderful having contacts with varying photographic tastes and techniques for expressing themselves.
It's about having fun and learning.
Whoever visits my photosream-I hope you enjoy it and I would love to visit yours!
PLEASE DO NOT USE ANY OF MY IMAGES WITHOUT MY PERMISSION. JUST ASK FIRST!

"I ALWAYS LOOK FORWARD TO VISITING ART'S ANIMAL PHOTOS AND HAVE ASKED HIM QUESTIONS ABOUT SOME OF HIS PHOTOS , SO I CAN ONE DAY GET THE KIND OF PHOTO I AM LOOKING FOR MYSELF.
WE LIKE TO PHOTOGRAPH AT 2 OF THE SAME PLACES (ELMWOOD PARK AND PHILADELPHIA ZOOS) AND I AM SURE WE WILL ONE DAY RUN INTO EACH OTHER.
ART , THANKS FOR ALL YOUR TIPS AND KEEP POSTING THOSE GREAT ANIMAL PHOTOS.

""I wish I took that photo. " Of all the photographers on Flickr, I think I've said that more about Art's photos than anyone elses. He is the King of Philly Zoo photography, and a wonderful contact as well. And I found out about Elmwood Zoo from him, too.
Thanks, Art!"24th August, 2008

"I really like Art's animal photographs, especially these of big cats. They are full of life and beauty, when you watch them you only can say 'wow'. He is one of my favorite photographers on Flickr, and I'm looking forward to see more of his photos."

Gangie says:
"Art's photos are truly amazing. They are National Geographic worthy in my mind. I am sure if you looked I have faved countless numbers of his photos and most certainly will continue to do so.
He brings the animal kingdom and those endangered species alive in his photos. For those not lucky enough to have a zoo close by just visit Art's photo stream, you will be in awe and wonder at the magnificent photographs that he has taken.
He is an inspiration to us all."28th July, 2008

From Cams Eye says:
"He is a superb photographer with a magnificent gallery of images.He captures it all well, . All of them receive the "magic touch" through the lens of her camera and transform into works of art. Hes not only a great photographer, but also one of the kindest, most generous people I have met on Flickr. Thank you, for the joy of your photos!"""

Life of David says:
"Art 's photographs are a pleasure to view. He expertly captures the beauty and vibrancy of every subject he shares with us. The way he artistically presents scenes of nature and animals are like a conducter directing a wonderful piece of music. I enjoy his work and am glad to view each new photo as it appears on Flickr."
