I am a husband of 42 years, a pastor, a retired military guy, someone who loves Jesus, the out-of-doors, flowers, gardens, hiking, old cars and things and taking pictures. Right now I am using a Canon PowerShot S5 Digital and a Kodak EasyShare DX7630.
Most of the flower and garden pictures were taken in "Maria's Garden" in New Jersey. Maria is my wife and has the green thumb in the family. I take the pictures and help with things. My goal is to photograph all the flowers we have in our garden and learn their names. At last count, we have over 160 different species of flowers, plants, shrubs and trees.
The are many other pictures in my collection of my early military days in Korea, Okinawa, and Germany. As Maria was born in Korea, we both have a special affinity for that country. I can both eat and speak in Korean.
I have two grown children and six grandchildren. Each of them are a blessing.
The screen name? It comes from my grandfather who was named Herman Victor Isadore Severensen. He changed his last name to Stenberg ("Stone Mountain") when he immigrated from Sweden. No one could pronounce Stenberg when I was in the Army, therefore I was nicknamed "Berg." There you have it.

A time of refreshing. says:
"I really appreciate having John (Isadore Berg) as a contact. Many times when I needed that moment of encouragement...he was the one that the Lord chose to have stop by my photostream and say, "have a good day!"....and then I click on his photos and see that he has a refreshing photo of a beautiful flower or an insect enjoying doing its purpose on a beautiful flower...We are all very blessed indeed to have these tools and to be able to share with one another!
Thanks John....Glory to our Lord Most High for giving us the Holy Spirit to guide us into all the treasures that Christ has made the way for us to have!"23rd July, 2010

"John is such a wonderful person and a photographer. He has gentle and warm heart. We can see them in work collection of him definitely. In addition, he keeps taking the photograph by using rich beauty senses, a humour, and appropriate pathos. I enjoy his site. I are really happy, and, thank you very much for being great flickr friend.

We started out, just commenting on each others photos without even being contacts, but your fabulous flower images and your loyalty as a co-flickrite lead us to many months of friendship on this site. I have enjoyed your beautiful photos; of nature, Korea, and all your fabulous finds - you have a great eye my friend. I feel extremely honored to be counted among your contacts. I appreciate all your kindness, your loyalty, comments, invites and faves. Thank you so very much for sharing so much of your time and your life here on Flickr."

"We could have been friends with John in the past about 40 years ago.
I have walked around the same paths with him in south Korea during military service. But unfortunately we couldn't meet to each other over there in real world. Long years later, It happened a accidential meeting because of flickr. We have seen the pictures of each others in flickr about Korea and we interested. This magic box called computer is able to happen every thing. He is married with a elegant and beautiful lady from Korea. It could be happen the same thing to me and I would have been married with my korean girl friend. It's just a fate.
If we come the position of John who I met him in flickr community, I can say beautiful things about his photographic talent. He is the unique photographer of flowers and other stuffs according to me..
He is first class observer and has a great eye to take shots of lovely things. Especially flowers close ups. Also he is master of taking landscapes photos.
His landscape pictures are the visuel show for me. I enjoy so much to observe them. I like his pictures so much and looking forward to see new ones.
Please keep up your great work John. I'II be a big supporter always of your nice works."1st October, 2007

Child of the King Photography-Beckie says:
"WOW! That's how most of my comments start when viewing John's photographs! He has an eye for details and captures them beautifully. I admire his work and his wife, Maria, has a green hand...not just the thumb. Together they are a match made in Heaven. I'm proud to have "met" them through Flickr."
