I was born and raised in the South Philadelphia. I started photographing on Christmas day 1969; the day my girlfriend Harriet gave me a Konica 1000 camera.

I began shooting cityscapes, children, friends and family, experimenting with both black and white and color film. It did not take long for me to realize that I had an eye for color and composition.

Over the years I have developed bodies of work including landscapes, seascapes, florals, abstracts and architectural graphics, but at present my passion is photographing two primary subjects.

The first is Philadelphia urban landscapes: especially Rittenhouse Square, Washington Square, boathouse Row, the Benjamin Franklin Parkway and historic Philadelphia. I especially like to photograph Philadelphia during the peak of the four seasons.

The other is my Imaginary landscape series. I enjoy this series because visually it merges fine art photography with painting. These compositions vary in color, depth, intensity, texture, and transparency; effectively evoking the impression of cosmic nebula, coral reefs, arid forests, and mountain landscapes.
