New York is the city of my youth and after twelve years in San Francisco, I returned to live here. The subject matter to photography is endless and my long contemplative walks therapeutic. If I didn’t go out on a specific day I would always wonder what I missed. In October 1992 I was depressed and having trouble getting out the door. The “Blessing of the Animals at Saint John the Divine” was just twelve blocks away. Finally I forced myself and was rewarded: not just with a few interesting images, but I also I met my wife and we’ve been together for 30 years.
