I live on Mercer Island, Washington. I moved to Washington from Colorado in 1983. I retired in 2005 from a legal and investment banking career. I have been an avid photographer for over 25 years and have been teaching photography for the last 10 years at the Bellevue Club and Mercer Island Community Center. For the past 15 years, I have been represented by Tom Haseltine and sell gift cards with my photos in many northwest gift and card shops.
I think that Northwest Washington is the Serengeti of wintering waterfowl and raptors and that the Skagit Valley area is one of the best places in North America for photographing Trumpeter and Tundra Swans, Snow Geese, raptors, and Short-eared Owls.
