Backyard Late-Winter Nature in New Jersey. Three Days to Spring — Daffodils in Bloom.

I’ve been busy at work while trying to get ready for a photography workshop in Death Valley. I did have a chance to photograph the daffodils blooming across the street when I got home. It was actually 79°F outside, and I was able to open windows and let some fresh air into the house for the first time since last year.

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.
