Please Share Your Passion. I Know It's There!

To all my Brothers and Sisters in the photography world: "I'm thrilled to be back with you after many years"

In 1978 I quit my job as an Associate Director with WCBS-TV News in New York. The passion of photography was too much for me to stay in the "Safe Zone." For 22 years I was blessed! It was a tough road to survive in the Big Apple. But being selected for photography assignments by corporate America and the National Football League challenged me everyday throughout the country and into my travels through Europe, Africa and Brazil. In 1994 I completed my last pro assignment and developed a special education photography program for children and adults with disabilities in New Jersey ("SEE-Special Eyes On The Environment) 1993-2010. For me, during those post-pro years, I was rarely engaged with my own photography.

Only recently, last April/May, 2014 did the passion suddenly, without planning, re-awaken! Alone, I took my "Dream Trip" by driving the country...10,000 miles, 37 days....Jacksonville, Florida, across the southwest and up the west coast and back. a mission I had thought about since I was 14 years old. The camera and imagery became my passionate friend again after 20 years of laying almost dormant. I'm back in the Game!!! It's Great to be back with Ya' All.

REQUEST: Please Share your Passion for all of us. I know it's there! You can't live as an Artist/Photographer unless it drives you! We all look forward to hearing from you. My best to all of you, Ross Lewis
