I began my lighthouse journey through Wisconsin in the summer of 2002 during frequent visits while engaged to my fiance in Milwaukee. Instantly I became enchanted with the beautiful old structures, their history, purpose, and ornate elegance. My first and foremost purpose for moving to Wisconsin was to be married to and live with my fiance as my wife. After shooting the above lighthouse in Port Washington, Wisconsin I knew then what my second purpose was going to be when I moved from my hometown of Louisville, Kentucky. That was to start a two-year project of photographing as many of the state's lighthouses that I could get to, and then publish a coffee table book of "Wisconsin Only Lighthouses." Hopefully my lighthouse journey will be completed by the end of 2004.

   The sun rises each morning
   visible to only a few
   whose eyes are open.
   Sometimes my eyes,
   they ache from seeing too much.
   As I stand on this land
   of earth, fire, wind, and water,
   I constantly marvel at
   the images unfolding
   in front of me
   each and every day.
   I strive not only to capture
   photographs for all to see,
   but also pictures
   that will be engraved
   in my brain,
   forever.
