I live in Southern California just North of Los Angeles. Loved photography since my mid teens and studied from those that set the high standard long before my arrival on the planet.

 

Images of war was an attraction and read bio's on Don McCullin and Tim page, together with whatever I could find on people like Kevin Carter, Robert Cappa, James Nachtwey and Eddie Adams. When the internet came along ,I was able to study the work of Magnum and Vii photographers.

 

What I got from all this was a tuition you couldn't put a price on and much of my approach to photography is a direct result of it.
