About me

Location Western Pennsylvania, United States
Introduction I have spent over 30 years documenting the natural world in photographs. My images have been published by National Geographic Publications, Audubon, Sierra Club, Eastman Kodak, Oxford Scientific Films, and literally hundreds of other book, calendar, and paper product companies, world-wide. My stock photography is represented by Photo Researchers in New York City and The Image Finders in Cleveland, Ohio. I am a member of the BioCommunications Association, the National Association of Photoshop Professionals, the American Physician’s Art Association, and a charter member of the North American Nature Photography Association. A Cibachrome/Ilfochrome printer for over 25 years, I am currently exploring the world of digital imaging and printing, with formal training at Rochester Institute of Technology, Pittsburgh Filmmakers, and various workshops. I have co-authored two books on close-up photography, and an e-book combining photography and Japanese poetry.
