      <image:title>Work - Gazing across the Pacific</image:title>
      <image:caption>This photo was a fluke, in that I wasn’t supposed to be where I was at the time that I was there. Nevertheless, on Hwy. 1 right around Mile Post Marker 85.00, I realized the sun would be setting soon and I had a great photo opportunity. The wind was mild, the temperatures were just about perfect and I snapped this photo.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Work - Mother and child</image:title>
      <image:caption>Yes, the mother in this photo is my beautiful wife, Erin. And yes, the baby is my amazing daughter, Kathryne. The story of this photo involves me getting a new camera about a month after Kathryne was born. I woke up one day, grabbed the camera and walked into the living room looking to test it on anything I could find. Erin had just taken Kathryne out of her bassinet (in the background) and was holding her while sitting on our couch. As I put the camera to my eye, Kathryne and Erin shared a beautiful smile together that to this day symbolizes their relationship and personal connection. I submitted the photo to the Redwood Empire Fair the following Summer. Somebody must have seen what I saw in that moment because the photo won best of the entire division that year. The lesson I learned is that you don’t need fancy gimmicks, mad Photoshop skills or outrageous content to make a great photograph. Sometimes, just capturing something as common yet eternal as the bond between parent and child can be enough to produce something that resonates with people.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Work - Fallow Deer</image:title>
      <image:caption>Ridgwood Ranch in Willits, CA, is one of the few places in the United States where you will find these deer. A gift from William Randolph Hearst to Charles Howard, a herd of these beautiful animals have called Ridgewood Ranch their home for generations. In recent years, the herd has been steadily declining in size and it is conceivable that one day soon, the property will have seen its’ last free-roaming fallow deer. This antisocial buck was photographed giving me the Archie Bunker salute. Who says animals don’t have a sense of humor?</image:caption>

      <image:caption>My friends Glo and Lee had a fantasy wedding at Ridgewood Ranch. I took some photos that really captured the beauty of the environment and the couple’s incredible costumes, but this simple moment where their guard was down and they were caught in the moment remains one of my favorite memories of that day.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>My home has a few mountain tops, but many are on private property. When I find a great spot to do astrophotography, I tend to keep it to myself. It makes capturing images like this view of the Milky Way a lot easier to capture.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Steller’s Jays are one of my favorite birds. They only hand out at certain high elevations, and when you see them, they’re usually darting around so fast it makes it hard to get a good photo. I thought that I finally accomplished a major photography goal when I found this fella and got a few shots I was actually happy with.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>If you’ve ever been to Virginia, you know that the towns are littered with churches of all shapes, sizes and denominations. One of my favorites (based solely on its’ appearance) is the Mt. Ivy Christian Church in Moneta, VA. There are no tacky electronic signs in the front yard. The design is simple and clean. And the blue illumination of the cross attracts my attention whenever I drive by it in the evening.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>December 13th, 2021, Comet Leonard was visible low in the evening sky. You can see it here, dead center in the photograph. In the upper left corner is Venus. The comet has spent the last 40,000 years inbound from the orbit of Neptune toward the sun. When it reaches perihelion, it will be ejected from the solar system, never to be seen by human eyes again.</image:caption>
