You don’t me. You don’t know that I have an irrational fear of being eaten by a giant squid or that my mustache has a natural curl, but I am about to revile or reveal my utmost personal character.  I have been experimenting with life some several decades now and being rather successful at it, being such that I am still alive.

You don’t me. You don’t know that I have an irrational fear of being eaten by a giant squid or that my mustache has a natural curl, but I am about to reveal my utmost personal character.  I have been experimenting with life some several decades now and having been rather successful at it, still alive and kicking that is, I wanted to share some things with you.

I have always been infatuated with imagery, ever since my first exposure to great American Classic photography as a young man as well as the travel and people shots from such magazines like Natural Geographic and others.  I have had a  rich and varied career in several industries (add extra points if you consider “starving artist” as a industry) and all the while I have struggled to understand such life mysteries as “is it form over function or function over form?” and “ “how do they get that inside the Twinkie” and other things that everyone thinks about.   Deep thoughts to ponder in my early days when I worked as an Architectural Designer and even earlier as a struggling musician in a rock band “do I want the pretty guitar or the one that feels the best in my hands?”.  I still struggle with this question although now I can afford more guitars.

EXPLORATION OF LIFE AND PLACE

“A ship is safe in port,

but that is not what ships are  built for”

J.A. Shedd, 1928

WORLD WIDE PHOTOGRAPHY


Interpreting the world with creative expression through the eyes of an explorationist……one image at a time.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep,

But I have promises to keep,

And miles to go before I sleep,

And miles to go before I sleep.

Robert Frost

I am many faces.

My age has no boundaries.

I go to many places, live in many homes.

I am a reflection of emotions.

Bad luck for those who drop me.

Clear as water flicker like a diamond.

I am you, I am them, I am the mirror.

Gary Menbree

You gotta have hope.

Life without hope is meaningless.

 Without hope life is meaning less and less.

 Unkown

As great Pythagoras of yore,

Standing beside the blacksmith’s door,

And hearing the hammers, as they smote

The anvils with a different note,

Stole from the varying tones, that hung

Vibrant on every iron tongue,

The secret of the sounding wire.

H.W. Longfellow

Pirate Peaks with shrouded icy beauty

Bravest, strongest have scaled your cruel face

Your hunger driven by the snow and scree

Stealing heroes, buried without a trace

Temple of Athena

“Of Pallas Athena, guardian of the city, I begin to sing. Dread is she, and with Ares she loves the deeds of war, the sack of cities and the shouting and the battle. It is she who saves the people as they go to war and come back. Hail, goddess, and give us good fortune and happiness!”

Homer
