Look what the stork left on my doorstep. A baby male deer (fawn) trying to hide behind a leaf. Image taken with a Nikon D300 camera and 18-200 mm VR lens (ISO 800, 50 mm, f/4.8, 1/60 sec). Someone said “The Best Camera is the One With You”. The fawn’s mother came by later in the afternoon to pick him up, so I was just babysitting service for the day.

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.
