Skip Hardy, Photographer

Biography & Artist's Statement

After 20 years of government in the Washington, DC area I retired and moved to Newport in 2005. Throughout my life I have lived in, worked in and visited many places in the US and the world. Since 1962 I have had a great interest in photography. In my travels I take many tourist photos but I am always looking for that special view.

To me, good photography is capturing the profound impressions made by shadow and light (sometimes color) and the designs of nature. I try to capture these impressions and share them with others. Most of my early photography has been with film and wet printing. In the last five years I have switched to digital cameras and Photoshop processing.
