"Passion is in all great searches and is necessary to all creative endeavors."

- W. Eugene Smith, photographer
My photographic journey began quite by accident with a Kodak 110 Instamatic camera and a trip up the California coast on Highway 1. It was 1975 and the drive was nothing short of an Epiphany.
The same year I was given a Honeywell Pentax SP500 for my birthday and on that day, 11.11.75, my life became a series of visual experiences which, over the years, evolved into an integral part of my very existence.
11.11.75 is also the day I developed a new interpretation, and a profound understanding, for the word "passion".
My accomplishments in photography rise out of this passion and as such are evident in every image I document. My work, the love of what I do for a living, and the images I produce with my camera and my mind's eye are the only things of any significance.
I invite you to share my passion.
