| Interests | I'm an amateur photographer primarily interested in architectural subjects, as well as interesting still life. My favorite photos are generally ones with simple compositions, often high contrast images, and/or often B&W images.
My wife and I live in a 1830's Federal-style "Armorers" house in Bolivar (Harpers Ferry), WV that we recently completely rehabilitated. We used to live in a "newer" 1930's American foursquare house in Hyattstown, MD, a Montgomery County historic district. Hence, my inclination towards architectural subjects, especially historical structures, in photography.
Some of my Harpers Ferry photos can be viewed at harpersferryphotos.com. | | Equipment | Camera
