Dad’s Notes
Dad's Notes

Six days a week my Dad silently show­ered, shaved, got dressed and left for work before my Mother awoke. And every day, before he left, he wrote her a note. My mother kept them and ever since they passed away I’ve been won­der­ing what to do with them. This year I made a weekly cal­en­der as […]

Is it something?
Is it something?

Just like David Let­ter­man I have to ask “Is it some­thing?”  I love old pho­tographs. Mem­o­ries awak­ened. So play­ing around with those mem­o­ries I thought I’d drop my old age in with my youth.

Photoblog — A Way Of Life
Photoblog - A Way Of Life

I’ve got a pho­to­blog that I’m sure no one vis­its (much like this web­site). And that’s okay. It’s Zen like… it’s the doing of it that mat­ters, not the thing itself. I have to make images and the pho­to­blog pro­vides a lit­tle moti­va­tion and out­let to fuel the fire. There is no rhyme or rea­son to […]

Family Archives
Family Archives

I’ve start­ing to deal with the boxes of pho­tos and mem­o­ra­bilia that we gath­ered from my par­ents. My ulti­mate goal is to build a dig­i­tal archive with a data­base ref­er­enc­ing the orig­i­nal images and then hand them off to the next gen­er­a­tion. I’m devel­op­ing a work­flow to accom­plish the task and if any­one out there […]

2010 Christmas Card
2010 Christmas Card

Every year Julie and I cre­ate our Christ­mas card and every year we strug­gle to come up with an idea (not to men­tion get­ting it done on time). This year the choice was easy, although quite bit­ter­sweet. Look­ing through my library of pho­tos I came across the image above taken in 2003—a beau­ti­ful, 150 year […]

Words have power…
Words have power…

Words can change the world. They can be the force behind far-reaching social change, as in the words of Dr. Mar­tin Luther King, Jr. They can be the bridge between estranged coun­tries, friends, and broth­ers. They can be the impe­tus for turn­ing someone’s life around, or just a daily reminder of the won­der of nature, […]

Ten Years in Black & White
Ten Years in Black & White

After my par­ents died I inher­ited boxes of pho­tographs and only a hand­ful are iden­ti­fied with dates and names. How tragic that I didn’t sit down with them to dis­cover their cher­ished mem­o­ries. So with that as moti­va­tion, I set out to cre­ate this book high­light­ing impor­tant images in our lives from 2000 to 2009.

Then And Now
Then And Now

I’ve cre­ated a very per­sonal lit­tle book that chron­i­cles my artis­tic pho­tog­ra­phy endeav­ors over the last thirty plus years. There is quite a gap though between 1978 and 2000. Check out the book to find out why.
