Alta Vista Chapel, also know as Pilgram's Chapel, is located on a mountaintop on the north shore of Aruba in the northwest of the town of Noord. It was built in 1952 on the site of the the first Catholic Church in Aruba constructed in 1750 by Domings Silvertre - a Venezuelan Missionary. Stone pews outside were constructed to accommodate worshipers who could not find seating in the chapel.

For the past thirty years I have been exploring the many ways photography can be creatively used to record the beauty and interesting qualities of our world. Macro and landscape constitute the largest bodies of my work. Most of all I enjoy bringing out unique interpretations of common objects and scenes that might be missed by casual observation.
