I am a visual person. I am a digital photographer who enjoys capturing natural beauty wherever I am. I see in color. Most often, I make my own prints to control the elements of the photo, using Photoshop to enhance images much in the way Ansel Adams would have used a darkroom. I try to make images look the way I remember them. I appreciate beauty, and I try to convey that appreciation in my photographs.
