Tony Siciliano

I am married, have three grown children, age 73, and am a retired physician. I grew up surrounded by the Wasatch mountains in Salt Lake City, Utah. My wife and I lived in Bishop, CA, for four years in the early 1980s, and I fell in love with the Eastern Sierra. Being outdoors and in nature nurtures me like nothing else. I cut my teeth in photography in my 20s, learning black-and-white darkroom photography. I learned how to use Photoshop shortly after it came out and have kept up to date with it. I also use Lightroom to manage and organize my collection. I consider myself “advanced” in using both platforms. I have lived in San Francisco for 40-plus years. Since retiring over a decade ago, I have been able to indulge myself in photography totally. I typically go on at least two or three photography excursions a year and spend many hours at home editing photos. My photography haunts (places where I go repeatedly) are the Eastern Sierra, the Southwest, especially Zion and the area around Moab, the San Juan Mountains in Colorado, and Northern and Central California, including Yosemite and Death Valley.
