While some form of photography has been part of my life since my early days in the United States Air Force in the '60's, it wasn't until I received a gift subscription to Outdoor Photographer magazine in 2000 that my interest in outdoor photography really began to grow.
I'm seldom without my camera so most of my images have developed close to home in Central and Upstate New York... the Fingerlakes and Adirondack regions. However, I've been fortunate in recent years to be able to travel to what may be considered prime photography locations such as the coast of Maine, southeast Alaska, the central coast of California, Vermont, the Shenandoah Valley of Virgina, Arizona and Florida.
Still, as enjoyable as these locales are to photograph, it is always nice to get back home and to recognize the “beauty in our own backyard.”
For the most part, I take the photos that work for me, catch my interest, and will look good on the walls of my home or office. But, it's been a thrill to have others enjoy my images and to even want to hang them into their homes or offices as well.
Probably the greatest personal benefit of taking nature pictures has been my personal recognition of the natural beauty all around us that the good Lord has blessed us with. It makes little difference – sunsets, waterfalls, ice storms, wildflowers, majestic mountains, local parks, oceanside cliffs, or neighborhood streams – His beauty is all around us...We only need to see it.
