ABOUT ME
“Salton Sea Dawn”, above – A morning sky with the blue-violets of early dawn. The night and its stars fading, Venus rising, daytime approaching. Your eyes drift slowly down into shades of apricot and amber beyond the low-lying mountains in the distance. Reflections of orange and lavender in the still waters of the Salton Sea mirror the colors above, as the eyes continue to move lower to engage with the darker shoreline. On the left, dual reflections of humanity’s presence subtly remind me that I’m not alone. This image flows from my ongoing search for calming landscapes combined with often startling colors, reflections, and emotional resonance.
As a child, living in Los Angeles, I was an actor, helping to spark my creative interests. Later, as a teenager living in a small mountain town in California’s Sierra National Forest, I discovered the brilliant night skies, helping spark my interest in astronomy, science and nature, and a later interest in planning for and pursuing total solar eclipses around the world. Fortunately,creativity, planning, and science combined match well with pursuing photography.
