This website illuminates my life and adventures. My longing for freedom has led me to over 2450 of the world’s 3978 provinces, to every country on earth and to the summit of the highest peak on each continent (thank heaven for good weather!). In my travels, I learned to respect the intelligence and ingenuity of people of all races and callings both past and present. Come see the world as I see it: as a peaceful place, full of nature and beauty. With the right spirit and intent, we can make our world a virtual Garden of Eden.

USA, Looking Down From Golden Gate Bridge North Tower, 1980 - This photograph was taken looking down the cables from the north tower of the Golden Gate Bridge towards the Presidio and the Avenues in San Francisco. The cable we climbed up was like the one in the foreground.
Ibexes are very hard to see. I was lucky to have a f4 500 mm lens with me. They were far up on the other mountainside. The morning was extremely cold and windy.
Namibia, Epupa, Himba Woman, Child, 2000 - This is a photo of a Himba woman with her child. This Himba woman was very beautiful, and equally gentle. If I didn't know better, she seemed to be a queen, if not in name, then in spirit.
