Music and arts are my passion. I started taking photographs as a teen with a "swinger" black and white camera. For many years my favorite medium was a
110 camera, I loved the grainy quality of
the shots. I was using Sony for a few years, but I usually use the phone camera as I find the best image come when I'm not looking, but just happen.

Nature, sunlight, and angles, and angled buildings usually catch my eye. I've just recently moved to Frederick, Maryland and there are all these churches with austere steeples, and I find them fascinating.
