I am the photographer and artist I am today because of being so influenced by the area in which I live. Trenton Falls, NY is an artists' gem. It has been my teacher, my inspiration, and my primary subject for years. It has taught me how to see through the eyes of an artist and that there is ALWAYS something worth photographing. Having originally started out as a painter, photography then was only a means of gaining reference material. Encouraged by others, I started putting more time into photography and it has since become my artistic passion. I'm constantly learning and evolving and thanks to Trenton Falls my opportunities here are plentiful. To capture those fleeting moments, the ones so often missed by others, when the elements of nature come together to create a truly magical scene... for me, that is what it is all about.
I have just published my first book of photographs called 'The West Canada Creek and Around Trenton Falls'. It includes many of my most popular photographs featured here. You can preview and buy the book from the following link http://www.blurb.com/bookstore/detail/2714764.
You can follow my photography on Facebook at 'All Things Trenton Falls'. I post new photos from around Trenton Falls every few days...
