Dedication

I still have a photo album I filled when I was about 7 years old. The pictures were taken with my first camera, a Kodak Brownie. My first photo album contains pictures of my family and friends – and also contains photographs of the Sierra Nevada. We used to drive the 9 ½ hours it took to get to Mammoth Lakes back when there were only a few ski lifts in that community and no condos.  This website is dedicated to my father, who taught me to love the Sierra’s and bought me my first camera.

I have been taking pictures ever since and those early photos of the Sierras have been followed by many, many more. I have filled numerous photo albums since that first photo album. I have thousands of slides – some organized, some on light tables, and some in boxes. I have filled up every available space in my office and in my house with prints.

I don’t seem to have lost any of the enthusiasm for photography that I had as a 7 year old boy with a Brownie. This website has been so much fun to put together and to work on. I hope you like the photos.
