....: Bio

The beauty of the world around us inspires me to take my camera wherever I go. It doesn't matter how expensive your equipment is, the inspiration to create is the most important equipment tou can have with you.

I bought my first Nikon ProCamera in 1976, A Nikon F Ftn, I now use a Nikon D6 and a Nikon z7.

Some of my pictures were published on Caters News, Yahoo News, Nikon Owner Magazine, My Modern Met, Fox News, NPhoto Magazie,The Montreal Gazette, Royal Ontario Museum’s Biodiversity Centre in Toronto, National Wildlife Federation, Canadian Geographic Picture of the year (Macro), La Ville de Montréal, Fashion Weekly Magazine (China), Trail Canada, Yahoo News, La Métropole, and one in the Ottawa Museum of Nature,

Now that every person in the world is able not only to shoot millions of his or her own photos, but also to manipulate billions of others’ images, the skills of gifted and trained photographers are more invaluable than ever.
Photography, as a medium and a craft, culminates with the creation of an object.
The original artwork conveys as much of the artist’s vision as do the subjects it depicts, the manner in which figures are framed, the palette of tones highlighted by various chemical processes and so on.
