First became interested in photography in high school and always dreamed of building a darkroom but family and life (and no extra $) got in the way. Fast forward to 2012 , I bought my first digital camera and became involved in a photo group locally. In 2015 I retired from teaching and began to spend more time shooting, primarily landscapes and wildlife. Traveling has given me the opportunity to visit (and capture) some amazing scenes. My current desire is to improve both my composition and post-processing skills.
