Featured in "Pathfinder" online magazine

I was featured in the "Pathfinders" online magazine for the Summer 2019 issue. Click on the cover image of "Summer 2019", with my fireworks photo, and turn to page 7. My only beef with the article was that they said I "left" North Bay Regional Center (NBRC). That's actually the agency that HELPS me, and they aided in finding Turning Point for me, so I don't anticipate leaving NBRC anytime soon. Other than that, it's a good article

6th Time award winner!!

Just got back from the Solano County Fair  and discovered my shot here

won an "Honorable Mention" award. This makes my SECOND Honorable Mention award, and my 6th ribbon I've won so far in my career. CRAZY feeling right now. I'm at a loss for concrete words!

1ST PLACE!!!

I finally won a 1st place ribbon at the annual Dixon May Fair. Here is the original shot



INCREDIBLE feeling!! Oh and here it is in color

Front page of the Dixon Independent Voice

The week of March 18-22 my photo made the front page of the Dixon Independent newspaper

Apparently 2 idiots were making drugs in this RV and it blew up in their face. 2 dead, 2 injured in the aftermath. Here's the story on KCRA.com

2 killed, 2 injured in early-morning RV fire in Dixon

Feels AMAZING to have MY PHOTO in an established newspaper!

At rest

We recently put my late neighbor, Air Force veteran Doug Ford, to rest in the Sacramento Valley Veteran's Memorial Cemetery. Was a somber day. We later visited with people at his house and celebrated his life

A loss

Sadly, on Valentine's day, I lost my neighbor, here in Dixon, CA of 30+  years Doug Ford due to Cancer. He was 85. I didn't agree with him, politically, but he was certainly a nice man who watched me grow up from 1986 (when I moved to Dixon) onward. He was like a 2nd grandpa to me (my grandpa passed in 2004). Being a retired war vet aviator that he was, he had quite the vast collection of RC planes in his backyard



I imagine they'll go to good homes in the foreseeable future to some good RC plane enthusiasts. Doug is survived by his 3 children, from left to right, Lisa, James, and Andrea

Went to the last day of the 2017 Global Winter Wonderland attraction at Cal Expo, January 7th



Such a fun attraction!

House Fire

I caught the aftermath of the a house fire on 385 Calmace Drive here Dixon.
No Deaths, 1 injury (I believe), or so I heard from the Fire Chief. The fire was so big they had to call in additional units from nearby Vacaville, Winters, and Davis. Fire Chief told me the fire moved rapidly but was eventually contained. I shot some additional footage & posted it on my Periscope

End of an era for a building

Apparently this McDonald's, here in Dixon, is being torn down, and being replaced by a more modern McDonald's for whatever reason. So, it being the last day, 9/4/17, I went over and took some pictures of it

California State Railroad Museum

Finally had a chance to photograph a childhood favorite place of mine in Sacramento

Night shoot

Did a good handful of photos of a lady named Maureen Ennor here in Dixon, California. I felt I achieved solid results. I'll post more later, likely in another post. For now though, this was one of the shots I took.

At the Circus

Went to the Circus today, one of the last events at Sleep Train Arena, before the venue will close in Fall 2016.

I shot some video of one of the more impressive acts - motorcycles in a circular cage.

Another Walk

Went back to the UCD Arboretum again the other day, in Davis, CA. Had a nice walk through it, & got photos. Take a look in my album
