Living in Denver, Colorado, since August 2010. Interested in wildflowers, wild places, day hikes, travel (mainly U.S. and Canada), all kinds of wild landscapes and habitats, especially mountains. I'm an amateur photographer, but rather serious about it, although I have little interest in the technical details. Unlike the guy in Bridges of Madison County, I take pictures rather than make them. More than anything, I like the challenge of finding the pictures to take. That's the art of my photography if there is any.

Many of my older photos were taken while living in Ithaca, New York, for 30 years; traveling to various corners of the U.S. and Canada on summer vacations; living for a year each in Las Cruces, NM, Eugene, OR, Tucson, AZ, and Asheville, NC; traveling full-time for six years in the U.S. and Canada; and residing for a few years each in Columbia, MO, and Grand Junction, CO.

In addition to my photos, I've also written a number of essays on wildness and related topics. The essays can be found at: travelingwild.blogspot.com. You might especially like to see the one titled "Wild Photography."
