Amateur photographer splitting his time between Indiana and Michigan. I shoot with a Sony a7R2 body using vintage glass. I’m particularly fond of #Takumars.

Married to Julie since '96 with a 21y/o son - Ash

Professionally, I spent 27 years working in I.T. in just about every area other than app dev. A few years ago I made the leap from IT and now focus on learning and development.

What A Fool Believes by The Doobie Brothers just started playing on my echo. For reasons I cannot explain this song always transports be back to the late 70s / early 80s of my childhood...almost feels like a forgotten core-memory is on the verge of being unlocked...but it never quite gets there. Love the way it makes me feel though 😁

I am a sucker for old vehicles along roadsides. Here's a GMC truck I came across in rural Michigan.

I went out on a photo hunt last weekend and made some new friends. As I was taking photos, more cows just keep coming closer to checkout what was going on. Several of them started bounding around like giant puppies.
