Backyard Late-Winter Nature in New Jersey. Spring is Near.

As Promised, Snow Drops (and more Purple Crocuses). This morning the sun was out and lighting up the flowers across the street. Snow Drops, a field of Snow Drops, Snow Drops in a field of Purple Crocuses, a field of Purple Crocuses, etc. Spring is Coming!

I am a scientist by training (Eckerd College, BSc; Caltech, Ph.D.). I worked for 27 years as a Chemist in the Pharmaceutical Industry developing processes to manufacture medicines for human and animal health. I now spend my time as a photographer and world traveler. My interests include the natural world, wildlife, landscapes, sky, and seascapes, travel, and astrophotography. I look for unique ways of viewing the world and presenting my images. I have traveled to over 55 countries in six continents, often on Semester at Sea voyages. While at home in New Jersey, I spend time on home renovation and expansion of a wildflower garden/meadow.

  1. Thanks, I do like what I am able to get with the Leica digital point and shoot cameras. Because of this, I just upgraded to a Leica X1. Will post images soon. I haven’t given up on my Nikon bodies and lenses, but having something light weight that gives great quality I will use.
