Here’s my small tribute to former First Lady Nancy Reagan: Mrs. Reagan was escorting Queen Elizabeth II up the Red Carpet into a banquet at 20th Century Fox Studios, Los Angeles. This photograph was taken 33 years ago, almost to the day, during Queen Elizabeth and Prince Phillip’s 1983 visit to the west coast of the...
I’m having a blast working with motion. Been shooting for a while as a videographer and now editing in the film making world too. “Never say never” is a saying scoffed at more than once in my life and shrugged off just as often. “Never going to shoot video”. “Never going to edit video”. Well…...
I’m proud to announce Video/Film Making/Cinematography offerings. The visual world is changing, and changing quickly. Motion and sound are improving the quality of content over the still image.

ABOUT My blog
I'm working hard this year to overcome my love / hate relationship with blogging. Over the years, I've looked at is as a difficult chore, a task to be done on a regular basis.
Guess what? Not many posts were produced. In fact, none in 2023.
Changing up my attitude in 2024. Will post because I have stories to share. When writing about the amazing adventures and experiences from "back in the day", it's fun and often enlightening to relive those memories.
Also posting about present day events and photo subjects allows for "real time' sharing of those experiences.
