Twice a year, I've been teaching digital photography and Photoshop workshops in the Smokies with Willard Clay and Bill Lea. I have also judged competitions, and given photography and Photoshop talks, workshops, and classes for several clubs and groups around the country. I am in my second year as President of the Roswell Photographic Society in Roswell, GA. In both 2005 and 2006, I helped British landscape photography master Charlie Waite put on his Master Class workshops in the US, and am currently working with him on one for 2008. For more than two years, White Sands National Monument has been selling my images in their museum store.
