Most of my photos are downloadable so just select a photo and move your curser to the left side. A menu will open up and you can select download original. Just about all of these pictures are 1/2 sized jpegs, but more than large enough for most of your needs. If you need the original large file, let me know. You can also have a company print and send you your selected pictures if you don't have a decent printer too. If you use my photos in your personal promotion material, CD's, etc, please give me a photo credit. If it's for commercial projects please contact me! You can also hire me for your events, personal portraits, or take me with you to Thailand to document your holiday...
Enjoy, use the comment feature if you'd like, and email me with your questions.
Thanks for visiting.

Welcome to the site of my other passion - photography! I enjoy my life as a musician, but I've always loved photography, moving from film cameras back in the 70's (Canon AE1 and F1), to digital (Canon G5, 20D, G11, and my favourite now, the Canon 5D mark 2). After thousands of hours (4 decades!) honing my craft on my trombone, I enjoy the new challenge of trying to be more consistent and artistic with my camera. Having some really good lenses and camera bodies help of course, but as the most virtuosic musicians will tell you, the best instruments don't make a noise - it's the player behind it. When I look through photography books, or some of the great photos from others on this Zenfolio photo site, I am humbled by the technical and artistic talent these photographers possess. I have been fortunate to get some nice shots as well, sometimes a scene that's so perfectly composed and lit it's hard not to screw up, but many of my other photos required patience and the experience of hundreds of thousands shutter releases to pull them off. The learning never ends...

Excellent work. Pictures taken at Kolkata reminded me my days in India. you have done very hard work on birds photos. Your website is very informative and interesting. Wish you all the best.

I think it’s great. If you have had your portfolio online already you may also start selling your photos to magazines, there several thousands in US alone. If you're keen and you don't mind sitting at the computer all day you can find all of those magazines in the Internet. Also, there are quite a few really good books and websites out there if you go looking. My suggestion is to check one of them – http://www.freelance-market.net – and try a couple magazines until you find out what does the job right for you. Of course there are others, the good sites will give you all the information you need to start that includes links, description, payments, etc... without the information overload.

Al,
Don't know if you will remember us but we talked at Tall Pines about photographying our car with the reflective vinyl (car # 18). Your shots are amazing!! We would like to talk to you about some night shots and podium shots.
