Bio
I've always had a facination with the outdoors. The wildlife, scenes and activities are not only a favorite way to spend my time but to photograph. Though I lean mainly towards wildlife, I am not adverse to turning my camera towards something else that catches my eye.
I currently live outside of San Diego in the suburb city Santee. Within 45 minutes from home I can either be at the coast, in the mountains, or in Baja, Mexico. There is always something going on to capture with my camera.

Photos of me
Obviously I did not take these photos myself (click here). They were taken by other talented photographers and given to me. Please take the time and look at there sites.

 

  

Equipment
I am a proud shooter of Canon SLR products. I have and do use other brands for point-and-shoot cameras, but the Canon 20d with a 500mm f/4 lens attached is my favorite set-up for working out in the field.
