  • Eagle Creek is a mountain stream that only exists in my head.  My image of Eagle Creek is a combination of many streams that I've visited and some that I hope to see.  I visit it often.<br />

I live in the small Texas panhandle town of Canyon.  Married to Sherry, the love of my life for nearly 42 years, we have a daughter Carissa, a son Nathaniel and wife Megan that live in nearby Amarillo.  We have two exceptional grandchildren, Joy who is 9 and Gavin 3.   <br />

We retired in 2017.  Photography is a hobby that I use to relax and focus.   The more I learn about photography, the more I realize how little I know and am anxious to learn.  <br />

I got started in photography when I was in junior high, and then high school working as a photographer on the newspaper and yearbooks.  I watched many a sporting event thru the viewfinder of a Rolleiflex twin reflex camera (manual focus).  The image was reversed and every time I looked up the teams were going the wrong way.  I spent most of my senior year in high school in the darkroom developing Tri-X black and white film and making prints.  Since then I've always had a camera and have taken lots of photos of the kids.  We bought a Nikon digital for our daughter when she graduated college convinced that it wouldn't be as good as my trusty Nikon SLR film camera...but saw the results and was hooked on digital.<br />

We enjoy traveling and spending time in the mountains exploring for more Eagle Creeks.<br />

"In the view from the mountains<br />
There's a story to be told<br />
In the crashing of the ocean<br />
There's a power that no man will ever hold<br />
<br />
All the stars in the Heavens<br />
Decorate Your handiwork<br />
And like a mighty choir<br />
They've come to celebrate Your worth<br />
Don't let me miss the glory, don’t let me miss the praise<br />
<br />
All creation is singing to the honor of your name<br />
<br />
Don’t let me miss the wonder don’t let me miss the grand design<br />
<br />
The lightening and the thunder will open up my eyes<br />
<br />
Don’t let me miss the glory"<br />
<br />
Wherever we travel, I'm constantly amazed at the beauty and glory of God's Creation.<br />

I hope you enjoy some of my photos.<br />

    Eagle Creek is a mountain stream that only exists in my head. My image of Eagle Creek is a combination of many streams that I've visited and some that I hope to see. I visit it often.

    I live in the small Texas panhandle town of Canyon. Married to Sherry, the love of my life for nearly 42 years, we have a daughter Carissa, a son Nathaniel and wife Megan that live in nearby Amarillo. We have two exceptional grandchildren, Joy who is 9 and Gavin 3.

    We retired in 2017. Photography is a hobby that I use to relax and focus. The more I learn about photography, the more I realize how little I know and am anxious to learn.

    "In the view from the mountains

    I hope you enjoy some of my photos.
