Good stuff. You oughta get together with Bob R and work as a nighttime duo.

I think Marton's intentions are different from mine. I tend to be awake while others are not. Most of my pictures are of places familiar to me. I often drive along quiet roadways without radio or other distractions. I keep the windshield free of dirt, grit, dead bugs, and tree sap. When I catch a clear view of something special, I investigate it. Often, I'll return and photograph the same place under different night sky conditions or from different perspectives. Sometimes it takes two or three outings before I am able to capture what I see in my mind's eye--patience.
I've lived in Central Florida since 2003. For the past two years, virtually all of my pictures have been taken within six miles of the Gulf of Mexico. My true objective is to create photos that tell a story. Sometimes I succeed, sometimes not. I enjoy the process, and it is a life-affirming activity.
