I am Self-Educated Professional Photographer and Writer, based in the Southern Tier Region of New York State. My photography specialty is Nature, Wildlife, and Agriculture
Born with a passion for the outdoors, I took up Photography when my wife bought me my first camera. I discovered I had a passion for taking photos of nature and wildlife and I have been at it for nearly 50 years. I would say that I am a professional as I have experienced the happiness of having a photos and creative articles published. My publications include calendar publishers, magazines, handbooks, online magazines, contests, and business journals.
I currently use the Canon R7 with the Canon RF 200-800 and the 100-400, where I get the ultimate in Quality Photos and Performance,
I use Adobe Lightroom, and photoshop to process my RAW photos into high resolution Tiff’s, and run Topaz AI and adjust the JPG’s as required to put out a quality photo as it very important to me that my images represent a factual representation of the subjects I photographed.
I have many images published in various journal, magazines as well some written articles dealing with nature and wildlife.
