This first paragraph is short & sweet and is what I generally use when
showing wildlife & nature .
I am drawn towards the charismatic images that the outdoors has to offer.
In everything there is a story and photography for me is about capturing an
environment. Shooting outdoors can give you a sense of the fragility of a
time and place that may not exist in the future.
The following is similar to the bio on the members pages of the F/Stop & Wehr Nature Center camera clubs that I belong to. With the exception of a few years in the Phoenix & Chicago areas.the Milwaukee area has been home. Being in the Travel Industry, forever, and opening my own agency, Travel Visions - 46th & Forest Home in Milwaukee in the mid 80's, has afforded me opportunities to travel the world and not only shoot the world but to meet incredibly interesting people, many becoming long time friends. I use Nikon equipment..and have become part of the digital generation. Occasionally I do pull out my F100 to shoot roll film. I'm pretty much self taught, but have increased my skills with several classes at MATC. Photo subjects of interest to me are Wildlife & Nature, primarily the Alaska Grizzly's of Katmai and the Black Bear at Anan Bay and my favorite being the Ice Bears of the Arctic at Churchill MB Canada and in the past, I have organized small photo groups to these area. I also enjoy shooting Sports & Special Events, which includes traveling abroad with K C Williams (country music entertainer/song writer) and his band . Recently I have involved myself in a new project "Window of Discovery" which is the other side of me.....the somewhat abstract side. This is a work in progress which currently includes some 20 images.
