When I retired I went back to my love of photography. This is really rewarding for my relaxation and love of nature, it also brought some surprises with several ist place wins in photo contests. I study plants and how they form what the wind does to movement, how environments develop different species, have I mentioned that I am a gardener. That means many happy hours photographing my backyard which also bring in birds and others. I travel the world looking for natural beauty and different cultures and my galleries will reflect whatever and wherever I am inspired.more
