About Face

I absolutely LOVE this face.

Nature gives you the face you have at twenty; it is up to you to merit the face you have at fifty. Coco Chanel

Miles From Nowhere

I made this photograph in Lake Havasu City, Arizona.  I appreciate all the cactus I get to observe there.


Nature is an infinite sphere of which the center is everywhere and the circumference nowhere.
Blaise Pascal

Neon Wilderness


I always seem to find flowers in the most interesting of places.

 "I don't like formal gardens. I like wild nature. It's just the wilderness instinct in me, I guess."

Written in Reverse


I've spent many hours in restaurants.

I Still Remember

It isn't that often that I see children sitting on a curb with lollipops and a puppy, but I do remember the days that I did that!


Always remember that these are kids. Do not holler at them, give them all the support you can because this is all about the children.

Your Protector

I love photographing animals, especially dogs.  These are photographs of my dogs (except the last two).

"Dogs are our link to paradise. They don't know evil or jealousy or discontent. To sit with a dog on a hillside on a glorious afternoon is to be back in Eden, where doing nothing was not boring--it was peace."
- Milan Kundera
