I am a retired U.S. Navy Senior Chief and a retired United Methodist Pastor. I now spends my days helping others grow, whether that’s encouraging young people in faith, mentoring leaders, or capturing the quiet wonders of God’s creation through the lens of a camera.
Additionally I am an award-winning, published nature and wildlife photographer who regularly presents instructional talks to local and regional camera clubs. I work under the tradename Inlet Images, sharing imagery that celebrates the beauty, complexity, and sheer grace of the natural world. My images can be found hanging in businesses, hospital rooms and private residences across the country.
Why this blog? There are actually several reasons. First it acts as an outlet for some creative pensions. Secondly it serves to keep me connected with friends and acquaintances around the world, and thirdly I hope it can inspire others in one way or another, maybe encouraging them in their artistic endeavors or helping them with their spiritual growth.
