I've been taking photos since the early 1970's, but became a serious amatuer in 1985 when I bought my first underwater camera (Nikonos IV-A). Since that time I've invested in several 35mm land cameras, done much reading, attended a number of seminars, and taken many more photographs. A few years ago, I felt that my images had improved enough that, with the ecouragement of family & friends, I began to market them. These days I shoot both film (yes, I can be a little old fashioned) and digital. I currently live in South Florida and enjoy the variety of photo opportunities available throughout the area.
