has been a member since December 2007 and goes by NIP429.

I am from the Islands of The Bahamas. I studied Photography at the Art Institute of Ft. Lauderdale, and with the New York Institute of Photography. After two decades in the Bahamas Diplomatic Service, I retired as Consul General and currently reside in South Florida.

I am fascinated with Flower Photography but, as you can see, I'll photograph almost any subject matter which interest me.
