Photographs capture a moment in time. It is the imagination of the photographer that is expressed at that moment. As a nature photographer I have attempted to express my appreciation of the beauty of nature. It is these moments I call "Portraits of Nature".                                                                               
I am currently a full-time earth science/biology teacher on Long Island, NY as well as a part-time amateur photographer and rock climber. I have been photographing nature since 1976. Thank you for visiting my website.
