Lake top Heron

I took this photo from the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. It was hard to find a good way to photograph Lake Huron until I looked ummmmmmm smaller.

Your photo will be custom printed on luster archival paper with a one inch border. I will sign and number the print on top the border for you. If you would like a metal print, feel free to contact me directly for prices and availability. Metal prints are ready to hang but far more expensive to create and ship.

My work is not about creating art. It is not even about making photographs. It is more about hunting and gathering. The area I hunt is the United States of America. In my heart I call it “The Territories” or simply “America”. Photographing my country is an act of patriotism for me. My way of serving.
Think of me as a big kid. All I want to do is play outside. For me, playing is driving and taking pictures. My current “Bob”, is a destination-bumper-sticker-laden travel truck. This one (Bob 4) is a 2-year-old Ford 150 with 70,000 miles on it. There is no place I'd rather be than driving cross-country on what I call the gray roads; those hidden highways, those roads less taken. I always want to see around the next curve in the road to photograph the treasure that might be there and The Territories never let me down.
I take pictures because I am a hoarder, a collector. I gather them up like toys in a toy store. I choose my angle, lens, f/stop, shutter speed and ISO carefully because I am a discriminating collector. Panoramas offer me even greater control by allowing me to choose the size and shape of my image. I can define the perimeter specifically in each case. I love the precision that photographic equipment affords me.
When I see something great I want to share it. I shoot for my wife, my friends, my students, for whoever wants to look. When I show a photo, I'm thinking “Look what I found!! Isn't it cool?”
