I have moved to digital photography because of it’s versatility. Digital photography coupled with Photopaint and Photoshop offers two worlds. The obvious of capturing true moments in time. It also offers the capability of working with the digital images - which can also be from a scanned image - to enhance or create a second piece from that captured moment. I also have restored and tinted old family photos.
If you are interested in any of these images please feel free to contact me.

I live in Ohio and I have grandchildren and pets. I like to take shots of familiar things that we see every day but take for granted. I like to try to capture the beauty of this earth where ever I see it.
I use a Sony A100 digital camera and Adobe Photoshop and sometimes Corel Photopaint to enhance my final results. Now and then I like to "play" with the images and use some of the many Photoshop tools to enhance the images.
