"Irish Tea"

In Cork on the occasion of my wife's 50th birthday. Love the simplicity here.

Biography: After graduating from Washington & Lee University with a degree in journalism, I discovered my eye. I went from a photo lab job to behind the camera in 1980 to shoot mostly magazine, commercial studio work, personal art, and photo-illustrated books. My personal and commercial photography long fed hungrily off each other. What other creative medium tool will take you around the world? In 2020, I sold my studio and left commercial photography behind. I now write about photography, while using my library to sell prints, and I still shoot what calls out to me.
