Options Change Ahead

I know about missed photo opportunities. I ‘ve had a few. Sometimes like you, I say I’ll be back. Other times I am just in a hurry and don’t feel like stopping. Once in England I was traveling in the north in Yorkshire. I had hired a car and driver for the day to show me and my assistant a…

My Great Escape

The look of those images is the result of using infrared film. That was my look back then. A photographer friend referred to me as the Infrared King. It gives a very distinctive look. My website is full of infrared images. Love that stuff…hated that stuff. It was always unpredictable. And not for someone who wanted precise results. I loved…
