This picture shows how thoughtful and caring my father is. It shows him listening. Without him I would never have accomplished anything.

This sign was on a bench on my bus line. I cropped the message with framing. I thought it had a good message as I incur student debt.

I was able to frame a message after I heard about the horrible massacre at Sandy Hook. I hate guns.

I love using light to accentuate the beauty of nature.

This is tool stand at the nursery where I work. I liked making the mundane beautiful.

This shot of a 50,000 year old Nautilus won first prize at my college's annual art show. It shocked everyone that my photo won.

I love this pop of red of my sister's sports car caught out in the snow.

I had to catch a moment in time for an assignment. It took me a lot of shots to get this one perfect. I think this shot is when I decided to become a cinematographer.

I love it when light changes form.

This is the inside of truck at work. However you wouldn't really know that. For me it is a picture of my soul when I feel lonely.
