Waves at Dusk
This is looking south towards Pudding Creek. I took this photograph on a cold summer evening just before full dark. I set up my tripod right at the water line and used a long exposure, which gave the waves that blurred and surreal look.

Raindrops with Roses
I took this picture in June, at the end of several days of light drizzle. A very light rain will cover everything with big drops, while a heavier rain will knock the drops off as they form. Each raindrop can act as a lens, showing an inverted image of whatever is on the other side. To show roses through the drops, I had to find grass stems that were at just the right angle to the rose bushes. These roses are old cultivated varieties that have gone wild on the Mendocino Headlands.

Mushrooms on a Twig
I found these little mushrooms in winter, growing on a dead thimbleberry twig in a thicket near Mendocino. I crawled into the thicket and set up a flash with a diffuser on one side, hung my camera upside down from the tripod and lay on the ground to take the picture.

Acorn Woodpecker
This Acorn Woodpecker was looking out from its nest hole in an old dead oak one afternoon when I walked past. The oak is used by a whole clan of Acorn Woodpeckers and has several other nest holes as well as all the stored acorns.

Dragonfly with Dewdrops
One foggy morning in early fall I was out for a walk near Willits and found this Meadowhawk resting on an old Star Thistle head. The sun was starting to shine through the fog, but the dragonfly was still too cold and wet to fly.

Waves at Sunset
I took this picture New years eve 2005, just after the big storms of late December. I was a few miles south of Westport, trying to take wide-angle photos of waves exploding on the rocks without getting myself soaked. The light was weak and strange and nothing was really working until I noticed a spot where the waves were cresting right under the yellow disk of the sun. Changing to a telephoto lens without getting my camera full of salt spray was a trick, but I did it in time to photograph one set of waves before the sun went down.

| I grew up in the mountains outside of Willits CA, and I’ve liked exploring the woods and watching wild creatures for as long as I can remember. I became interested in photography in 1986, when I was nine years old, and convinced my parents to help me buy a good camera system. I was home schooled, and at that time my family lived in an area with no other kids, no tv, and no telephone. Since I didn’t have much else to do, I was able to spend a lot of time out hiking and taking pictures of birds and animals. I started selling my photographs when I was about eighteen, and have been earning my living at it for the last few years. I now live near Mendocino, still very much enjoy photographing beautiful animals and amazing places, and plan to continue doing it for the rest of my life. |
