In 2005 and after 31 years in the brewing industry I chose "Freedom 55" and retired early. This allowed me to follow my passion of scuba diving and travel. I moved out to Vancouver Island in British Columbia, Canada for 3 years and became a professional scuba instructer.  Shortly after returning from New Zealand in the fall of 2011, I have been having to deal with a couple of non diving related medical issues which has forced me to hang up the mask and fins for a spell. This should give me more time for taking pictures...lol.

"Most people can look back over the years and identify a time and place at which their lives changed significantly. Whether by accident or design, these are the moments when, because of a readiness within us and a collaboration with events occurring around us, we are forced to seriously reappraise ourselves and the conditions under which we live and to make certain choices that will affect the rest of our lives."

I visited one in Arizona and previously seeing on TV did not do it justice.I like the saturation and rugged landscape

The otherworldly feel you have created here is a perfect visual metaphore given how this landscape was created. The intense and overstated vibrancy are well played here.

I'm having a hard time making out exactly what I'm looking at from a topographic point of view, but I really like this a lot as an abstract composition. The textures, colors & forms create a powerful & dramatic effect. Great work...
