"After 48 years in the corporate world, I retired to the Central Coast. My wife said that I needed to get myself a hobby that got me out of the house. I always enjoyed photography but never had the time to develop my skills. I was lucky that the Central Coast had so many great photography organizations with gifted photographers who are willing to share their knowledge and support.

"My goal as a photographer is to freeze a visual impression in time to be reflected upon through time and hopefully provoke some type of emotion. My favorite thing to shoot is street photography (every person/street has a story). I also enjoy taking photos of my travels, flowers, landscape, architecture and animals. I converted my Sony A7R camera to Deep B&W infrared.

"I currently hang photos in the Paso Robles Art Association’s Gallery in Studios on the Park, and I post on Facebook.
