This website illuminates my life and adventures. My longing for freedom has led me to over 2600 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.

Tanzania, Ngorongoro Crater, Zebra And Wildebeest, 1987 - Ngorongoro Crater in Tanzania is a thrill to see, for inside it there are most of the big game species in Africa. I long to see the world's natural animal populations restored by preserving vast spaces on the surface of the earth as World Parks.

South Georgia, Glacier Down To The Water, 2006 - South Georgia is one of the most spectacular places in the world to visit. There is an overwhelming abundance of wildlife. The scenery is sublime. Invisible in this photograph are the many seals on the shore below the glacier. The scale is so large that they are too small to be seen. There are literally millions of animals.
