WELCOMERochester, New York and the surrounding area have many photogenic
locations--most appropriate, given Rochester's longstanding history with photography. I am pleased that you have stopped by to check out my
selection of images from Rochester and the surrounding Finger Lakes Region and
Western New York. You will find unique images having considerable variety,
including a large selection of panoramic images.
When you browse the images, I hope you find ones that you would
like to own. All of the images are available as photographic prints, including
large sizes having exceptional quality. My photographs are printed on
KODAK EKTACOLOR Papers or, alternatively, media that is designed for long-term
image permanance. I enhance the photographic files when printed with digital image optimization
for quality, sharpness, and color. I have numerous photographs in stock, others will
need to be printed per your order. Professional framing with archival materials
is also available. See the
mat
gallery and for details of available sizes.
Consider that my photographs will add a photogenic regional character to the
decor of your home. Large photographs will also be attractive for your business
decor, especially if you are located in the area and want to add an impressive local presence
to the office. If
you can use an image on your website or publication, they are also available for
a fee. If you have a great idea for a photograph, I would be pleased to work
with your commission.
Rochester Photos PhotoCards. The photographs were taken over
the last few years and I designed the PhotoCards with five themes in mind:
sunsets, riverfront, Mount Hope Cemetery, winter, and George Eastman. I
plan to build on the series with additional themed PhotoCards. In addition to a brief representation of my photographic portfolio,
I am hoping that there will be interest in the PhotoCards for those who have
interest in Rochester scenes; perhaps they might become collectible items. More
details are at the following the

In early 2006 I was fortunate to be asked to join the Image City Photography
Gallery as a partner. A very dedicated group launched the gallery in Fall 2005
and since its opening more than 80 shows
have been exhibited with more than 200 photographers. I am
currently showing a selection of my photographs and to change the
photographs that I exhibit for each show, every four weeks. If you would like to
see the quality of my photographs first hand, visit the gallery. You will also
be very impressed by the caliber of the photographs on display by the member
and guest photographers. Check out all of the details of the gallery at

ABOUT THE PHOTOGRAPHER
My entire work experience has been involved in photography. In high school I was fortunate to get a
delivery-boy job at a photofinishing plant in Fargo, North Dakota.
Eventually, I worked at most of the jobs in the plant and was able to work my way through college producing people's pictures.
After I got my BS and MS degrees in chemistry at Moorhead State University and the University of Minnesota, I had one dream -- to work for Eastman Kodak Company.
I was fortunate to have that dream fulfilled in 1974 when I was hired into the Photographic Technology Division. For the next 31 years, I worked with fabulous teams on the design and the development
of the processing chemicals for photographic papers and films. I retired June 2005 as the Technical Director-PhotoProcessing Chemicals. During my years at Kodak, I
observed
and participated in activities that yielded very significant improvements in the products that greatly improved the image quality of photographs.
With that strong technical background I am now working to further develop my photography passion to produce fine art photographs. Current photographic capabilities allow us
to produce astounding photographs. It is a very exciting time participating in the evolution where digital capture and digital printing produces such new capabilities--notably panoramic photographs.
I produce my prints with digital capture, custom image enhancement with Photoshop, and digital printing onto KODAK EKTACOLOR Papers
-- a "C-Print" or with Epson Ultrachrome ink technology.
I am also blessed to have a couple of very supportive friends. Their combination of masterful technical solutions in image processing (you will notice a very realistic and exceptional sharpness in my photographs),
and their offering of challenging ideas, and friendly critique and support are most appreciated. Thanks John and Mike.
My goal is to strive to produce photographs that will interest you with their composition, impress you with their image quality, and be even better tomorrow with what I have learned today.
