I began using a digital camera in 2005, and in 2006 I started entering my work
in craft shows, photo contests and galleries. I like to capture an unusual view,
as most photographers do, but I also like to see what else an image may have
to offer using various computer enhancement techniques.
I love nature and am fortunate to live a few blocks from the Rocky River
Reservation of the Cleveland Metropark System. Many photos you see here
are from that park. The system is called the "Emerald Necklace" for the way it
circles the greater Cleveland area. It truly is a gem and one of the many good
things about Cleveland.
I am pleased to have received the following recognition for some of my photos:
• FOCUS 2009 Photography Exhibition (Solon Ohio Arts Center)
- Key Bank Community Choice Award and Judges’ Choice Award
• BAYarts Photo Show Finalist: 2006 & 2008
