I am based on the North Shore of Long Island, New York. Although I started taking pictures later in my life, I was always  involved with other artistic pursuits. Among my many interests is landscape design which has been a constant through out my life. This interest has influenced the direction my photography has taken through the years. The time that I spend wandering with my camera and tripod waiting for something to call out to me to create an image are among the happiest and most peaceful moments of the day.
