My interest
in photography dates back to the 1960's when I built my own darkroom
and experimented with black and white images. The digital revolution
rekindled my interest in photography with the computer replacing
the darkroom. Toward the end of my long career as a biologist and
college professor, I made many digital images of a very wide range
of biological specimens--both macro and microscopic. Since retirement,
my wife and I have traveled from Baja California to Alaska photographing
wildflowers, wildlife and landscapes. I have a special
fondness for the great diversity of wildflowers and the many challenges
offered by bird photography.
