Description

Washington Monument and the Capitol Building

Washington Monument was Robert Mills and construction started in 1848 but was halted in 1854 due to a lack of funds, a struggle for control over the Monument Society and the intervention of the Civil War. Construction restarted in 1877 and finished in 1888. Until the Eiffel Tower was completed in 1889, it was the world's tallest structure and remains the world's tallest stone structure.

Nature, animals, beauty have been a source of nourishment throughout my life. Photography allows me to capture, interpret, and share that world of wonder I see about me, and sometimes use what I capture as an inspiration to create something new, by incorporating other exposures, textures or brushwork.

I currently reside in Oregon, an environment rich in nature's graces. I have lived in California and New York, too, and everywhere there is a world of beauty around us, if we care to take the time and look for it.
