I first became interested in photography in 2010 as a pre-retirement project and as a homage to my Dad, and I discovered that I enjoyed it immensely. I find myself drawn to photography because of its ability to tell a story without the use of words, and as a way to volunteer my time to help others.

I’m mostly self-taught; i.e. I have no formal training in photography or in art. I’m not exactly artistic; if anything, I’m the opposite as I’m a scientist by education and work, and I take a very scientific and logical approach to photography

While the Alberta Rockies are the home of a lot of spectacular scenery, there is beauty in the Alberta prairies too, and I find myself increasingly drawn to shooting the landscape in central and eastern Alberta, especially in Strathcona, Lamont, Minburn and Two Hills Counties. That is, rather than take the viewer on a journey to marvel at the grandeur of the Rockies, I prefer to show them the subtle beauty of the Prairies.
