The cost of my new morning model is that she gets to nibble on the clover in the wildflower patch that I planted last fall. She is up every morning just about the time that the sun rises. So far she is very patient as I change cameras and lenses. I have been cleaning and testing the equipment I didn’t have with me on the Semester at Sea voyage. I had forgotten how big and heavy a DSLR and big telephoto lens can be. The real test will be the quality of these images vs. ones with the mirrorless kit that I used for the last 4 months. Image taken with a Nikon D3x camera and 600 mm f/4 VR lens (ISO 800, 600 mm, f/4, 1/500 sec).

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.
