Additional Things...


I enjoy living in the big city of Columbus, but I usually refer to it as a town. It’s manageable to me, and the neighborhoods bring it alive. But, I also enjoy visits the slower pace of rural areas, wide open spaces of nature, and quiet places where I can ponder the awe of our planet.

I really like photographing nature. I love trying to “frame” the photo, what to keep in, what to refocus and leave out…I use Nikon N80 and a Nikon D50 35mm cameras, the former a film camera and the latter a digital. Photographs are snips of time, space, light and memory captured by the heart.

The stars in the sky are a wonder to me. My favorite stars in the entire universe are the three stars that are equidistant apart, known as “Orion’s Belt.” If you ever seen them, you will not forget them, so I hope you see them some night.

I thoroughly enjoy New Age peaceful music, and many other varieties of music, including a lot of today’s country music and some rock n’ roll songs. Classical music is vibrant in my mind, and jazz can give anyone a smooth, slow sense. The country music of today is fun, romantic, thought-provoking, sexy and just plain rockin’ at times. I think music is another form of communication that helps us handle the difficult demands of daily life, and helps us find relaxation, peace and meaning.

There are so many things that I find special, and right. These are but a few.

I hope you enjoyed this unique way of getting acquainted. Thank you very much for ‘traveling’ with me, even for a little while, on this brief visit into what stirs me. May peace be yours this day, this week and beyond.
