About Me…
I am a photographer in Humboldt County on California’s far North Coast. MindscapeFX is my business name, but I am just me. I’ve been photographing since the mid-1980’s, and I began showing my work in the late 1980’s. I currently sell my images locally and over the internet. I love most shooting artistic photographs in the dark of night, including time-lapse, as well as creating interesting, usually surreal, digital photomontages with my photos. I will also do the odd commercial shoot (the odder the better) and other projects. I have collected awards locally and regionally for my photographic artwork.
I contribute a weekly photo story called “North Coast Night Light” for the northern California online publication North Coast Journal, and for Redheaded Blackbelt and the Anderson Valley Advertiser, where it is called “Night Light of the North Coast.” Plus a few print and other publications.
Since 2008 I have taught Photoshop at College of the Redwoods in Eureka, CA in the Digital Media Department, and sometimes in the Art Department.
Perhaps my images and stories will help to enlighten those who have never seen the wonders all around us, and reacquaint those who might have forgotten and gotten absorbed in the race and lost their place in the mundane.

![Fields Landing - Humboldt Bay, Humboldt County, California.. Swipe for 3 separate panes. Shooting star/meteor in middle and right panes. .
I had another great time out being photographically creative with @maryburnzz . It was a good night for it! We each caught a shooting star, I think two different ones. .
.
A fishing boat and the last dying embers of the sun's orange glow marked the horizon. Ground lights spilled their illumations across the landscape and up onto the clouds, and the stars popped out in all their constellations. Venus was sinking in the west, bright enough to cast a reflection on the bay. Even a faint hint of Milky Way 🌌shone diagonally across the sky. Even EVEN our neighboring galaxy Andromeda 🌌 was visible above the channel marker with the green light on it. To cap it off, I caught a meteor/Shooting Star! 🌠(See it?).

From the story on kymkemp.com (Redheaded Blackbelt): “It [my pano] comprises five separate, side-by-side vertical frames, which I then put together into the whole. The resulting view is nearly 180º.” .
