Dying rat at my door step. Image taken with a Nikon D800 camera and 105 mm f/2.8 VR macro lens (ISO 6400, 105 mm, f/3, 1/15 sec). It was very lethargic with a wound on its neck. A present or offering from one of the local free range cats.

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.
