When I first starting working at Hunter Mountain in 1989 I was shooting a lot. I was in NJ photographing weddings and spending most of my free time in the mountains snowboarding. While at the mountain everyone I met told me I should talk to one of the owners named David. We both shot Hasselblad and he had a problem with his. It was a common problem and I had a special tool to fix it. What better way to break the ice than to fix another photographers camera.
Fast forward 23 years and you can still find David and I talking shop. He currently is working on a book of sunrises and sunsets he captured over his lifetime. The images are incredible and if you are close to David, he is pouring his heart into this project.
Often when I walk by his office, he stops me and asks for a little computer help. Here’s an image from today’s computer help session. His smile is due to the fact that he is almost done with his book. What an accomplishment. ENJOY!

Christina Galin - I can’t wait to see the book!!! Yesterday I went to a Community Photography Workshop, consists, right now, of photography groups from Mechanicville NY all the way to Cornwall on the Hudson NY held at the Franklin D. Roosevelt Presidential Library and Museum.
Two classes, two opportunities to do a photo shoot in the Rose Garden and take advantage of the National Parks Free day.
On October 13th, going on a photography hike with Fran Driscoll again…
I am really enjoying my photography and really learning alot. David knew my brother very well and I know he is ‘following my learning’ and smiling on my accomplishments. I would love to sit with both of you and learn from you….
