I have lived in northern Ohio most of my life.  I started photography as a hobby in 2005, and found it to be a great escape from the day to day .  It started by walking the metro parks of Columbus, Ohio, and took off from there.  I always preferred landscapes, because the tree I take a photo of will never say they didn’t like the photo. 

I have been blessed to be able to see many places in my life, and wish I had started taking photographs earlier. I felt the time was right in 2024 to start this endeavor, and see where it goes.
