About

I had a 30+ year career in the sciences before “retiring” in 2015 to start a second career as photographer and woodworker.
In my second career I’ve devoted myself to pursuing long time interests in both photography and woodworking. Through my photography I try to capture the more intimate aspects of a place. While I appreciate iconic scenes, I really relish the ordinary aspects of day to day life.
I have long held the view that creativity, inquisitiveness and analysis are equally important to both the scientist and the artist. I am by nature very analytical. It is what drew me to chemistry and mathematics, and it continues to influence me as I explore the world through artistic endeavors. The word analysis denotes the deconstruction of an entity into its essential elements to understand its nature or function. This is a primary driver for me as I explore through photography the world around me.
