ENTRY DESCRIPTION
I was living in Brooklyn, New York at the time where I worked in the federal building in lower Manhattan. On nice days, I rode my bicycle to work which took me across the Brooklyn Bridge.

It was a particularly damp and foggy morning as I peddeled my way up the ramp to the bridge. Visibility was poor. Fog horns blared in the distance. I was struck by a solitary man walking towards Manhattan and into the fog. He was the only sign of life in my view.

I stopped, pulled out my camera from its case, quickly set the exposure, snapped. I wanted another shot with a slightly different exposure. I made the adjustments, raised my camera again and framed the shot. Just then, a throng of people emerged out of the fog making their way towards me. By the time they cleared my view, the man had disappeared into the fog.

AUTHOR
As an award winning photographer, I have been taking photographs since 1967. With my camera, I circumnavigated the world in 1971, lived in Ethiopia where I served as a Peace Corps Volunteer. Since moving to New Mexico from New York in 1988, I have dedicated myself to capturing New Mexico’s spirit and unmatched beauty.

With a passion for telling the story of New Mexico in black and white photography, my emotional and dramatic photographs evoke a thought-provoking, soulful response. My work re-imagines the stunning beauty of New Mexico, revealing its essence. I constantly explore beautiful landscapes, villages and towns, art, culture, history and people through my heart and lens.

In addition to awards and publication, my photographs are included in private collections in New Mexico, Colorado, California, New York, Texas, Washington DC, Virginia, Pennsylvania, and The Netherlands.
