<p>I have been photographing for 45+ years and I am still thrilled every time I capture something special in nature. I live, breathe, work, dream, judge, and teach photography (until I retired this past June). I am lucky to have taught photography in high school for more than 20 years. Although I loved teaching kids, I now have more time to pursue my passion for night photography, storm chasing, and the ocean. My work has won numerous awards including Best of Show and has been shown in magazines, museums, galleries, and personal collections.</p>
<p>I am first and foremost a storm chaser and nature photographer. I go storm chasing every summer during monsoon season in Arizona and New Mexico. Being able to get photographs of nature’s most spectacular shows, where no image is like another, is my greatest joy.</p>
<p>Most of my work is night photography of the Milky Way, star trails, moon shots, and thunderstorms, including cloud formations and lightning. I try to share with others the awe and spirit I feel when surrounded by the power of nature, her fury, and the incredible beauty in the storms and oceans she produces, where each image is unique and special. Sharing my work with others who may not be as fortunate to witness these natural phenomena makes me especially happy.</p>
