Welcome!

Here’s something new! I never thought it was possible for a guy like me to write a book – until now. You can read about it here or click the amazon link below to view and order.

A Thought, A Wing, And a Prayer Invites Readers on a 40-Day Journey of Faith, Nature, and Hope

It’s available at Amazon in paperback and Kindle format. A Thought, A Wing, And a Prayer

———————————-

I’ve always been creative – of sorts. I get that from my mom. She could create almost anything. Me? I can’t even draw stick figures! However, in my wildest dreams I could not have imagined when I first picked up a camera as a young adult I would have a website, thousands of images, artwork in a number of countries on 4 continents, digital images used across the globe for informational and commercial purposes, countless art fairs and exhibits, and a handful of awards along the way. But that’s not my story… this is.  To witness creation and worship our Creator.  As you poke around my website I hope you not only see the beauty of creation, but also the beauty of the One who created it all. 

You can find out a little bit more about me and my creative work sprinkled throughout the pages. If you’d like to know more about my story titled My Second Flight click here. You can also send me a message via the form below. 

I do hope you’ll stick around for a few minutes and enjoy the work in my galleries and visual blogs at the bottom of the page. And, I hope you’ll take pause and visit my Psalms and Laments page. It contains dozens of poems written by me and combined with my photographs. 

Oh, one last thing… you’ve probably noticed most of my photos the last few years are of birds with some butterflies thrown in. I have 5 bird galleries on the menu above and in 2022 I began a monthly blog where I record some of what I see. Just scroll down and you’ll see what I mean. Click here to view a page with links to all bird and butterfly galleries including links to individual monthly uploads.

I have thousands of bird portraits of 100+ species which includes; bluebird, cardinal, woodpeckers, goldfinch, hummingbird, blue jay, owl, warblers of all kind, wrens, titmouse, thrush, mockingbird, phoebe, tanager, oriole, fly catchers, birds of prey, and many others.

 

With grace,

Hal
Psalm 139
