Born and raised in Oregon's beautiful Willamette Valley, I've been artistic, drawing and painting from an early age.
I became serious about photography in the mid 80's, and have won awards internationally. I am an incurable romantic and also love fantasy and sci-fi, as you can see from my photos.
On April 14, 2014, I married my childhood sweetheart. We were both widowed after long happy marriages.
"Without love.....breath is just a clock......ticking....." from the film EQUILIBRIUM.

wow... this is like some turn of the century original chrome print or the like.... I love the scratchy old world look of the glass and flowers behind it and the green vine in front is in complete contrast to this....this is amazing and one of the best photos I have seen in a while...... I love geraniums and grow them all over my property...they remind me of my grand parents place... a very old school flower thanks for sharing this wonderful image with us Carl

An excellent shot, stems without flowers, bouquets surreptitiously approaching a position, a comparison between the future and be ... a beautiful tale full of pictorial philosophy! tenderness, patience, an alliance! ... almost a MONET! Beautiful composition, thank you Shirley! Un excellent cliché, des tiges dépourvue de fleurs, s'approchent subrepticement de bouquets bien placés, une comparaison entre le devenir et l'être...une belle fable picturale pleine de philosophie ! tendresse, patience, alliance !...presque un MONET !!! Magnifique composition, merci Shirley !
