Hallucinations. \u201cI see birds on the ceiling.\u201d I tell Peg I see them and they are beautiful. I ask myself, \u201cWhat birds?\u201d as I drift off to sleep.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Photography is all about passion. I have been a photojournalist for over 40 years. I approached each assignment as a person, journalist, and photographer.<\/p>\n

You can make storytelling images as an amateur or as a professional you need to learn to be a thinking photographer. To be a good photographer it takes practice, becoming a seeker of light, seeing the moment and mastering your camera gear.<\/p>\n

If you can do this, your photos will have contact, content, and impact. The camera used for my photo book is Lumix FZ1000 and Fuji 100s. I shoot RAW \ufb01les, color space Adobe RGB and program or manual settings. I like these new bridge cameras.<\/p>\n

They make my life much easier no more carrying two Nikon camera bodies and a camera bag full of lenses and \ufb02ashes. It has saved the wear and tear on my back and knees. Henri Cartier-Bresson, said, \u201cYour \ufb01rst 10,000 photographs are your worst.\u201d<\/p>\n

You just need to practice and keep practicing. I believe my number is a lot larger than that over the years I have a lot almost photos. When my wife was diagnosed with Dementia, I was frustrated and angry and wanted to help make a difference. I needed to do something more than just be a husband, caregiver, and a parent.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

That is how my book project started. 20 Minutes from Home. These images tell the story of my journey to the store, to my swim class or dropping my daughter Clare off at school.<\/p>\n

Moments captured seeing the light and moving on. It seems like I\u2019m always moving on. My tasks as a caregiver are demanding, but it\u2019s a road that I must travel. One hundred percent of the pro\ufb01ts from my book go to the Alzheimer\u2019s Association.<\/p>\n
