I tend to enjoy making and sharing images of people more than I do of outdoor/nature scenes.  For me, outdoor photography is more about getting some time alone to relax and reconnect than it is about making images.  Of course, I still enjoy outdoor photography - but it's more of a means to end for me than an end in itself.  It's also becoming a new way of bonding with my wife, as she's starting to catch a little of the shutter bug herself.

I've made thousands of outdoor images over the years.  The collection above represents my favorites, which isn't always the same as my technical best or the favorites of others.  These images all speak to me, and in a weird way, I speak to them as well.  When making an image, you aren't just recording a scene - you're becoming a part of it.  It is that relationship that I find the most rewarding.
