Image maker and editor, low tech by design. I love “home base” (Skidaway Island, GA) obviously, but I travel a lot and love to share the most visually compelling moments. Profound thanks for the follows, likes, reposts, and especially comments.

Thanks a lot John! Yeah, it was a pretty rough assignment. Brutally lonesome, lost sleep, spotty cell service, no vending machines, and it took almost 15 seconds to get the sand off my shoes! Whoa!
