Photography is something that has always been important to me. For as long as I can remember, I enjoyed having a camera in my hand. Of course, the quality of the camera's have increased over the years from the 110 that I started with, but the thrill is still the same. The last few years I have really concentrated on my photography more and more, constantly trying to learn something new. In 1998 I moved to Nashville, TN and soon was taking photos of all the country stars and sharing my photos with lots of them. It was a very exciting time in my life. Then in 2000 I moved back to Florida and since Vince Gill did not hang out on the local golf course for me to take photos of, I had to find something to take care of my love of photography. Thus, I started with nature, wildlife and landscapes. I started taking day trips all over the Florida and photographing things that caught my eye. In the last few years, I have become a huge fan of birding. I have always tried to research my subjects as to give the proper name of the animal or location. 

 Now, 2007 I am back in TN. My main focus is exploring the beauty of the Great Smoky Mountains, Cades Cove and surrounding areas. I am enjoying the peaceful side of the Smokies and learning all the new landscapes and wildlife in the area. 

 I hope you will enjoy viewing my photographs, as I had so much fun taking them.
