I loved wandering through La Boca. This place wasn't open yet--but the door itself was irresistible. (Buenos Aires, Argentina, 2025)

There are moments on a street when the simple doorway of a home or business makes you stop and admire the space. (Segovia, Spain, 2024)

I was moving around taking photos when a tourist stopped me and pointed at my shoe. This one had decided that my shoelace was a good place to ride from. I managed to gently shoo it away and continue on my work. (Iguazú Falls, Argentina, 2025)

Took a walk today on the beach along Lake Michigan. The ice dunes mark the water line. They are unsafe to go on, but beautiful to look at. (Whitefish Bay, Wisconsin, 2026)

I was walking with others and shooting the murals as I could--didn't have time to pause and look at them. I shot this, but didn't pay attention at the time. In the quiet of my office this morning I paused and looked at the names of the fallen bomberos from La Boca and remembered them. (Buenos Aires, Argentina, 2025)

My friends Michael and Cristan had come to visit me in Iceland. It was a truly Icelandic visit, because the weather was "Icelandic" and my friends were "all in" as we maneuvered in the countryside, with the wind and rain. (Hafnarfjörður, Iceland, 2024)

I like BeReal because it captures one ordinary moment of my day. I can see friends in their real moments and find joy without the baggage of traditional social media.

Walking along Harbor Park is usually lovely. This cold day in January there was no wind, lots of sun, and great views up the Lakeshore. Didn't know it would be my last winter living along the Lake. (Kenosha, Wisconsin 2014)

Not necessarily my best photo work, but I was limited by my seat and angle in the helicopter. This was the year of big rains in the southwest and the desert turned this lovely shade of green. Was traveling with a class from ASU that was going to learn to measure snowpack for water managment. (East of Phoenix, Arizona, 2005)

One of my favorite things on the landscape are the "Little Free Libraries." They are especially nice when they reflect something interesting about place or the the people who operate them. This one is in front of Immanuel Presbyterian Church. (Milwaukee, Wisconsin, 2025)

It's a rare moment to be high enough to stand on solid ground and see the clouds below. (Cerro Vueltas Lodge, Costa Rica, 2026)

More recently I've been trying to improve my skills a bit. The hummingbirds in Costa Rica were a good challenge (expect to see more). (La Fortuna, Costa Rica, 2026)

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA When I was working with a collegue on "water and the desert" we re-traced the one of the water sources for Los Angeles. This is the LA Aqueduct as it goes through the Owens Valley taking the the water form what would be the Owens River. (Owens Valley, California, 2005)

I love a good Public Market, and Seattle is one of my favorites. I remember when these markets were just markets. There were a few of them in Michigan near where I grew up. Even with the tourist influx, these are great places to get fresh food. (Seattle, Washington, 2012)

The Calatrava-designed Milwaukee Art Museum is spectacular when illuminated at night. I was a bit surprised to see it look so lit that night. (Milwaukee, Wisconsin, 2025)

A surprise encounter with a Monarch butterfly having a grand time at the beach. (Fox Point, Wisconsin,, 2025)

The mid-afternoon sun backlit me as I shot photos down the black beach below. This is one of my favorite photos from that trip because I had fallen earlier in the week and smashed and scraped my face (pretty ugly) and you can't see this here. (Snæfellsnes Peninsula, Iceland, 2024)

Got to stand at the southern edge of the tropics. For the photo on my desk, I removed the four people behind me from the image. Here, I need to be more real. (near Huacalera in the Quebrada de Humahuaca, Argentina, 2025)

A few weeks ago you saw me on this line. I was working at a summer camp and we were on our day off. We all stopped for quick photos (US 31, Western Michigan, 1981)

There are very few photos of me traveling as a boy. Even so, I did travel quite a bit and I have memories of different trips. Here is one to visit my aunt and uncle (who was in the Navy). (Charleston, South Carolina, 1965)

I know that this is the 3rd photo of the Goðafoss horseshoe. It was just so striking from every angle. (Goðafoss, Iceland, 2025)

There is actually no problem with them. I joked with an Icelandic friend once that it seems that everywhere you turn around "there is ANOTHER beautiful waterfall!" I described this once as "beauty fatigue." Kirkjufellsfoss is a prime example. It is a stunning little waterfall, dwarfed by other falls in Iceland and in this case not facing one of the most photographed mountains in the country (Kirk You have to "turn around" from the site to get a shot of this. Still one of my favorites. (Grundarfjörður, Iceland, 2024)

We were driving back to our hotel on the Snæfellsnes peninsula, we were tired but we still opted to take a quick detour to to see Svöðufoss. It was one of those late afternoons when the light does more work than the waterfall. (Snæfellsnes, Iceland 2024)

Dynjandi is the largest waterfall in the Westfjords and well worth the trip. The day I went, the trail was still under reconstruction but we were still able to climb up to the base of the falls. (Arnarfjörður, Iceland, 2024)

I had been to Dettifoss before and I wanted better photos of the space. The road was closed to the other side and the place where I took photos in 2021 was impassable due to snow that was still covering the trail (center right of the photo). Didn't get the shots I wanted but spent a lot of time just staring at the falls. (Dettifoss, Iceland, 2025)
