PHOTOGRAPHY PORTFOLIO - A never-ending quest for excellence.
At the age of four or five I was handed a Leica to take a family photo. Photography has intrigued me ever since. Ansel Adams' photos helped me understand the many shades of gray between black & white, and the importance of contrast. B&W remains my biggest challenge. Digital color editing is not far from that challenge. Photography was gradually becoming a disregarded art form until the iPhone. iPhone cameras have given virtually everyone the ability to capture anything and everything in digital format; though there will always be pictures, the majority will not be art, but will become memories to cherish! My recent purchase of a vintage NIKON FT will allow me to begin working in a darkroom again, with my focus on B&W.
I am available for select assignments. If travel is required, reimbursement of all expenditures will be necessary. I am able to meet specific photographic needs which others are unable to provide due to my extensive background and flexibility. I do not do portrait work unless tied to the proper setting or individuals engaged in sport. I do have access to an exceptional portrait photographer.

ARCHITECTURE:
Architecture is the 3-dimensional embodiment of the creativity of an artist/engineer. The beauty of architectural designs often goes unnoticed as we drive past or enter these wonderful creations.
Architects give us, on a grand scale, what most other artists provide in manageable packages - sculpture, paintings, etc.
PORTFOLIO PAGE 1 - MISCELANEOUS PHOTOS
Portfolio Page 1, provides a spectrum of the photographic art I have created and continue to create. Photographing the four-corners region provides subject matter that cover centuries, and an assortment of colors that span the color spectrum. I do not do studio portrait photography.
