Bio

I and my itinerant mind live with my husband and animals in southern New Jersey. Unless you are fond of photographing mountain ranges, pristine waters, or arid deserts, there is much to photograph here in New Jersey!

I was born and raised in Cape May. As I somewhat lacked the essential Cape May social graces, I spent a lot of time exploring the Delaware Bay. It smelled bad for half of every day so most folks had no interest. I rescued injured birds, poked around in tide pools, and suffered lots of sea life encounters. I have nothing but fond memories of my bay. If I had a more organized mind I would rally people to keep it beautiful*, but, well, you know.

I lived in Philadelphia for a spell. That introduced me to exhaust fumes, mental illness, drug abuse, cockroaches, art, humility, Russian immigrants and lots of other things essential to living a well-balanced life.
