IMPORTANT!
For most accurate viewing, please set your monitor's brightness and contrast controls so that you see 17 equally sized distinct shades of gray on this scale. The blackest bar on the left should match the black background of this page and each bar should be distinctly brighter. If you do not see 17 completely distinct bars, you will miss detail in the dark or light areas.

These photographs
represent the culmination of a lifelong dream...to be able to capture the beauty
in the Universe that sadly, most humans never get a chance or take the time to
appreciate. I hope that you will be as stirred as I am by these images.
