Popular Woodworking Article Published

One of my avocations is building furniture.  Recently, with the assistance of my friend Jeff Fleisher, I built a pantry shelf in what is known in woodworking as the Greene & Greene style, an Asian-influenced Arts & Crafts style of furniture popularized by the Greene brothers in early 20th century California.  We wrote an article about building the shelf for one of the major woodworking magazines, Popular Woodworking.  We're proud to announce that the article appeared in the August 2017 issue of the magazine.

Landscape Photography Book Published!

My most recent book, Creative Composition for Landscape Photography, has now been published by Amazon.com.  It's available in both paperback and Kindle editions.  This work was a lot more difficult than my previous books because of the large number of photographs--170--included.  This posed particular layout challenges in both the paperback and Kindle editions.  You can find the book here.

Because of my love of photography, I found this book particularly fun to produce.  If you have a chance to look at it, I hope you'll like it and I look forward to receiving your comments.
