More about me

Among other things, I am a wildscapes photographer living in the Pacific Northwest. I'm learning how to interpret my photographs as digital art; great fun, always something to learn and experiment with.

Used to be a range rider in Texas before the big mosey of '92, relocating to the Pacific Northwest.

I love the outdoors; camping, cooking, hiking, fly fishing, photography and more.

I try to live effectively, following the 7 Habits model developed by Stephen Covey. I'm on a journey of Awareness using the work of Anthony de Mello as a guide.

I enjoy solitude and wilderness, the warm glow of sunrise in a forest and the special light on a lone beach at sunset. I love the companionship of my wife (Trail Boss) and my faithfull "buddy butt", Shaddow. We all go on photo safaris. See our travel / photo blog at http://www.travelblog.org/Bloggers/Paddymac/

I'm a fly caster; used to be a fly fisher. I love to stand in a forested stream in hip waders with a flyrod. Some sportsmen cut the barb off. I cut the whole curve of the hook off and cast flies on top of the water. When there's a hit, they know it and I know it. I salute them and thank 'em for the encounter.

Oh yea; I like to smoke and grill food. I like to eat it too. I belong to the Barbecue Group. Belong to other groups too.
