FLINT HILLS OF KANSAS

THE FLINT HILLS OF KANSAS; have been a great photography teacher for me.  As with any natural beauty . . . it is so awesome and it evokes so much emotion that it makes it super difficult to capture it and do it justice.

 I have been shooting images of The Flint Hills for over 5 years now and every time I go out I am treated with this amazing challenge . . . to cause people to feel the emotion in my photos that I feel when I am there shooting it.  Impossible . . . but a worthy challenge nonetheless.

    BLACK & WHITE

    BLACK & WHITE PHOTOGRAPHY  My first love in photography.  When I first started shooting, I had the good fortune to meet a family friend who had made his career in photography. I'll never forget what he told me:

    ​"What is the main thing people comment on when they look at a picture?  They usually say something like "wow, look at that color!"  When you take a black and white photo, you don't have the color as your crutch.  You have to evoke emotion and appreciation without it.  It's takes a much better photographer to do that than to simply capture great colors."

    Capturing great colors is also a difficult task.  But old Bill's words served as a great inspiration to me in pursuing black and white photography.

      PEOPLE

      PEOPLE;  We were made for relationships and each of us is our own, unique creation, unlike any other on the planet . . . that is special!

      Photos of people allows us to connect of each others' culture, history and upbringing and allow us a glimpse of the uniqueness of each.

        AFRICA

        AFRICA;  We spent quite a bit of time on mission in Kenya, Africa.  The Kenyan people will always have a special place in our hearts.  The life there is hard but the hearts are soft.  We thought we might go there to bless them . . . WE were the ones to be blessed!

            LANDSCAPES

            LANDSCAPES . . . One of the things in this world that does the best job of connecting us to our creator is getting outside!

            When I am out in nature shooting landscapes, is when the reality of the magnificent glory of our world hits me between the eyes.

            I think it's healthy for us to be humble . . . and being out in God's creation is a great way for that to happen!
