My Photo
Name:

My home is in Chamberlains, CBS, Newfoundland: a place close enough to sea so that I can go there to watch the glorious sunsets over the bay, and the other infinite variety of sights and sounds that are forever changing, yet forever the same. I'm not as young as I used to be and don't get around much any more, but I've had many wonderful hours of enjoyment with my Yasihca 44 TLR and trusty old OM-2. I've always enjoyed photographing wild flowers, particularly the smaller ones, many of which , albeit mostly overlooked and dismissed as weeds, are exquisitely beautiful. Digital photography, complete with all the magic of its own portable darkroom, has brought a new dimension to the hobby. My OM-2 is retired now, but it is such a beautiful instrument, such a joy to hold and behold, that I don't think I will ever want to part with it. My digital, used mostly, is a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ30. Its 35-420 mm Leica zoom lens can really reach out for those hard to reach shots. My photographs are strictly amateurish, but hopefully some have succeeded in capturing something of the moment that inspired them.

THE ONE THAT NEVER GOT AWAY.
.
Flies may be amongst the lowest forms of life, but ,as humans, we may have already exceeded that distinction by our greed, our selfishness, and our lust to use to extintion all the finite resources of the planet. Man may have a brain, but he sure as hell , unlike the fly, does not have a lot of common sense. We appear to be blind to what is happening all around us. The flies may survive, (at this point, we don't harvest them) where we, most likely, will all perish
