HELLO, EVERYONE - I WOULD LIKE TO EXTEND A PERSONAL THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO STOPS BY MY WEBSITE.

New news about my photography is that one of my night sky images, “Milky Way Over Farm with Hay Bales” will appear on the cover of the winter issue of ‘‘The Annals of Iowa.” To fit the work into the required portrait format of the cover art, the image was cropped from a horizontal to vertical format. This led to the loss of the large meteor on the right side of the image. However, I feel that the image remains compelling with the foreground illuminated by a quarter moon, which had risen about one hour before image capture time. The moon remained out of the scene, lying to the left of the image. The cropped image is seen below the un-cropped version.

June 24, 2024 at the Figge Art Museum, Davenport, Iowa at their yearly Art at Heart Gala event one of my prints will be up for auction which graced the cover of The Annals of Iowa, volume 83, Number 1, Winter 2024. Image below.

My show closed at the Figge Art Museum in Davenport, IA on 27 August, 2023. It was well received by the viewers according to all reports from museum staff. The show was viewed by more than 19,000 individuals during its four week run. Following the show, the Figge Museum acquired two prints from the show, Neowise Comet over Corn Field and Meteor, Milky Way over Farm.

In November 2024 at the Figge Art Museum, Davenport, Iowa at their yearly Art Off the Wall event I contributed one of my prints for sale. Image below.
