Description
A Sea Captain on the Sea of Cortez. A group of us took a fishing expidition one day, out of the port of San Felipe, Baja California. We were in the capable hands of our Captain and First Mate, heading for deep water and fish-a-plenty.We came home tired after a long day in the sun, but with a lifetime of memories. ( and Photos )

I got my first camera, a Kodak Brownie, when I was six or seven years old, and I've been hooked on the art of photography ever since. A year or so later, I got my first processing and print making kit and I began to realize that I could be as creative, if not more so, in the darkroom than in the field. Over the years, my cameras and darkroom got more complex, giving me more creative tools to work with. About 10 years ago, I traded film, chemicals, tanks, trays, and the smell, for a digital camera and a copy of Photoshop. I never looked back.
