I believe the approach of the artist and the approach of the environmentalist are fairly close in that both are, to a rather impressive degree, concerned with the affirmation of life.

The quality of place, the reaction to immediate contact with earth and growing things that have a fugal relationship with mountains and sky, is essential to the integrity of our existence on this planet.

I hope that my work will encourage self expression in others and stimulate the search for beauty and creative excitement in the great world around us.

The artist and the photographer seek the mysteries and the adventure of experience in nature.

The technique of 35mm photography appears simple. One is beguiled by the quick viewing and operation, and by the very questionable inclination to make many pictures with the hope that some will be good.

I have often had a retrospective vision where everything in my past life seems to fall with significance into logical sequence.

Photographers and artists contribute a lot to the world and have a right to exist in relative security and comfort.
