Seven-Years Ago (14-March-2010) — New Jersey

Backyard Late-Winter Nature in New Jersey. Nor’easter Aftermath.

Unlike the nor’easter today with lots of snow. Seven-years ago the ground was saturated with water, and I lost several trees due to wind. This was before Hurricane Irene or Sandy. The power was out for several days and I ended up living in my RV (that had a propane generator). I was fortunate that none of the trees that went down hit the house.

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.
