NEW BOOK Perhaps a year ago, JoAnn Locktow, Publisher at Bella Figura Publications, asked me if I would be willing to submit some black and white photos for possible inclusion in a third book in her series, Dream of Venice. She explained that the book would be a compilation of the work of a number…
This fine art photography project, to create a multimedia book of the art and beauty I saw in the reflections in the canals of Venice began in 2012
Ever since I really started seeing reflections in the canals of Venice in 2012, I have been fascinated by the whole world of art and beauty that exists in very fleeting and fragile form
Venice and black and white photography seem to be made for each other!

The Champs Elysées Christmas market is a daily family outing: hot wine, lights, booths, candy floss, kids, slides, skating… Shops, restaurants, hotels, streets, squares – everything is…
In the Autumn of 2015 we (Georgianna and I) made a lightning voyage of exploration by car from Paris all the way through central and south France to Nice and Menton at the extreme eastern part of Provence. I’m posting just a few of the amazing places we visited and sights we saw on that trip.…
A year ago I knew very little about Bhutan and hadn’t considered visiting. My wife said I would like it – it was my kind of place to visit and photograph. The more I found out about it, the more excited I got. I took the plunge and paid for a 2-week trip around western and…
