In winter it can be difficult to find good subjects, but since I lean toward photographing wildlife I can head to various wildlife refuges or other waterway areas, including the San Joaquin/Sacramento delta area.  (Left) Black-necked stilt, (Middle) Adult Northern Black Phoebe,  (Right) Cinnamon Teal duck. Top, Ross's geese in "take off" mode.  All images from the Merced Wildlife Refuge.

Introduction

I love the way the camera sees the world, it can be so unique, so different than what is actually there when I take the photograph. My goal is to take photographs that show the world the way I see it,  using the unique photographic abilities that I have, the technical abilities of my camera, and my digital darkroom skills to output the best photograph "equivalent" that I can; a photograph that is wholly representative of my vision in photography and art.  I am not a documentarian or a photo journalist, I edit, delete, and change as needed.  My goal is photographic art and there is no "right" or "wrong" involved in that.
