Welcome Everyone,

In 2007, I photographed 63 portraits of young children in a Hartford school and exhibited them at the school, the YWCA, and The Town and County Club. People were touched by what they saw in the children's eyes.

In the fall of this year I went to the George Eastman House (of Kodak fame) in Rochester, NY, to see the man's residence. This is well worth the visit with beautiful gardens and a magnificent house. From there it wasn't far to the Finger Lakes for many photo opportunities of vineyards, idyllic towns, gorges and waterfalls and much boating activity on the lakes. Corning Glass Museum is not far from Seneca Lake and it is a "must see". Glass artists from the world over are represented here.

In November, my cousin and I went to San Miguel de Allende for a week, to take a photo workshop with Eddie Soloway. This is in the central highlands of Mexico, a colonial town that is full of 18th and 19th century houses, all painted stunning colors, with cobbled streets, and a virtual hive of activity. It is full of art, small restaurants and boutiques, and very kind Mexican people. Please have a look at the latest photos from there on my website. Click on Mexico.

I have been teaching photography classes to people with digital SLR cameras, both in the classroom and in the field. Doing both seemed to be the best method for teaching the students. In December students of mine and I had a month-long exhibit at The Town and County Club in Hartford, which was met by those who saw the show with much enthusiasm. Quite of few of the matted and framed pieces sold.

The summer of 2006 took me to the Gaspé Peninsula, Quebec, Canada. A friend and I drove the long distance, and from there we came down to the Maritime Provinces of New Brunswick (Bay of Fundy), Prince Edward Island, and Nova Scotia (Cape Breton and the southern coastline). Colors seemed to pop out in the clear, unpolluted air, and I marveled at the many fishing villages, lighthouses, vast farm lands, pleasant people and a simpler way of life. I would recommend such a trip.

There are lots of fresh New England scenes added to my website.

In September 2005, I visited exquisite Victoria, B.C., Canada, on Vancouver Island.  To get there I took a ferry from Anacortes, WA, through the San Juan Islands to Vancouver Island and drove the 21 miles to Victoria, renown for the Butchart Gardens and The Empress Hotel. I spent 2 days in the Gardens, on 65 acres of land.  They top any gardens I have ever seen. Retracing my steps I went to Whidbey Island, off Seattle, to be with 16 friends who gather every few years to have a reunion.

In February 2005, I visited glorious Hawaii. The islands Oahu and Hawaii are drenched in color and full of splendor. Simply put, paradise unfolded before me. In January 2005, I took in the serene beauty of Boca Grande, Florida. Don't miss these new photos.

The summer of 2004 was spent close to the water, from the eastern shore of Maryland to Watch Hill, RI, to Cape Cod and the coast of Maine. All have given me lots of varied beauty, not always sun-drenched, but sometimes full of mood, due to foggy conditions. Do have a look at the various states mentioned on my website, I have photos to show you from some of our great national parks, i.e. Bryce, Zion, Grand Canyon and Canyonlands.

I signed a contract with Backyard Oaks. They are producing some of my images as cards and gift enclosures.

My trusty companions are a 35 mm camera, Minolta Maxxum 7, with a Tamrom 28 - 300 mm lens, and I have an Olympus E-500 with two lenses that give me the same range as the Tamron lens.  This lets me shoot film and digital.

People ask me often where to get postcards made of their
photography. The site I like is: www.modernpostcard.com. One gets 500 for $125 US and their color saturation is good.
