Getting back up on the horse...

It's not that I got thrown really, it's more that I stopped riding.  That is to say, I stopped actively marketing my photography.  It's been about three years since I had any work in a gallery, participated in any shows or even offered my work for sale.  But the time has come to get back out there and pursue my ambitions - again.

I have spent the past few years taking care of more pressing matters than photography.  I never stopped photographing but I didn't seem to have much time to do anything with it.  Now though things seem to have settled down and I feel more free to create and share my passion with others.

I took my first step out last weekend by being part of a group show in Riverside, CA.  My friend Matthew Blais organized the show (and did an incredible job!) and included me and 7 other really fine photographers.  We had a great time, learned a lot, sold some work and got to meet some very nice people.  Now I'm ready for the next one!

I will have a new website this week sometime, I hope.  I would really like it if you would send me any comments or suggestions.  It will still be the same address:

I thought it might be up tonight but I thought wrong.  Oh well, by next weekend for sure.

Okay, well, this concludes my very first blog post ever.  It's a little strange and feels a bit like I'm talking to myself.  I'm sure I'll get used to it.
