Update as of September 3, 2022.
As of today, we have raised $400.00 through the sale of my battlefield landscape photo calendar. Those funds have now been evenly donated to the American Battle Trust and the Central Virginia Battlefield Trust, to help save more historic and important land on the Chancellorsville battlefield in Spotsylvania, Va. These donations are now part of 10.5 to 1 matching effort, making the funds we raised have an over $4000.00 impact on the bigger preservation effort to save this local battlefield land. Thank you to everyone who purchased a copy of this calendar and for directly helping to preserve important American history!!

Calendars are still available at the Fredericksburg Visitor Center at 706 Caroline Street. They make a great Christmas present!! |

(Spring 2022)
This year, I am proud to be sponsoring a fundraising effort to help contribute to the preservation of significant American history. Preserved Civil War battlefield land not only provides a space for the on-site experience and education of what took place there, they also provide our local communities with open green spaces for recreation, wildlife habitation, heritage tourism and a healthier overall environment.
Our goal this year is to help raise at least $500.00 that will be directly donated to, and evenly split, between two of the most highly rated and established non-profits that have been saving local battlefield acreage for the past twenty plus years in Spotsylvania County and the surrounding area.
Through the purchase of my 2023 calendar, you will be contributing to this overall effort and that is for sure, something you can be very proud of.
For every "Historically Beautiful 2023" calendar that is sold, a significant portion of all net proceeds will be contributed to the over all goal of $500.00. (see the updated "Progress bar towards goal" below. We are currently at 80% of goal!!)
My wife Ronda, and myself, have contributed the first $50.00 to jump-start this effort and you can purchase the calendar directly from this page on the link at the bottom. All web orders will be mailed through the USPS, Priority Mail, and shipping charges and taxes are included in the on line price.
Thank you so much for your purchase and contribution!! With each passing month in 2023, I truly hope you enjoy my battlefield photography and knowing that you are helping to save historic battlefield sites like those featured in my calendar.
