Welcome! I am not a professional or even a very accomplished photographer, but I love to observe the northern California coastal region with its breathtaking vistas around every curve and its omnipresent, abundant, and richly varied flora and fauna. Welcome to my world!
A note about the banner image — it is the famous Mount Edgecumbe, which lies 13 miles off the coast of Sitka, Alaska on Kruzof Island. It is visible at any moment that the skies clear from everywhere in Sitka and the name appears on streets, schools, and other important anchor points of this beautiful little town which I visit every opportunity I get. It’s like a second hometown to me!
The summer Chamber Music Festival is incredible and the Sitka Fine Arts Camp is a precious and unique institution that impacts the lives of youths in a profound and memorable way!
