it's a Labor of love

Photography is my profession and my passion. Like so many other creatives there is always the desire to keep creating, continue wandering, see what is up on the next ridge in reality or artistically. The website ... this project represents hundreds if not thousands of hours of travel to often specific locations to capture an image. Of course there are often happy accidents along the way and those are represented here as well.

Having a wonderful community that follows my work both on Instagram and Facebook I often get asked "How do I purchase a print?" So, here is the answer. This site is dedicated to featuring and offering some of the more popular and recent works. Please take a moment to travel thru the galleries and I hope you love what you see. Step into the Print Shop to view featured images available for prints and printing options. And if you don't want to purchase a print but want to help out this project, please see the bottom of this page where you can help the work continue. Thank you so much!


FEATURED GALLERIES

White Rock

Lake as Poetry

"As an individual, influenced by a particular culture, personal values, experiences, and beliefs, he has made choices about what we are to look at, what we are to consider. As a photographer, David has refreshed our eyes to the world, helping us to discover what we often ignore, take for granted, and neglect".

Dr Jill Hoffman, Museum of Texas Tech, Lubbock.

West of here

"Go west" as they say. So I did

"Examine your heart, follow your inner wishes and thoughts, and live a simple and real life" .. just like the feeling we get from admiring David McGhee's landscapes. La vie est d'ailleur!, run away, stay away, wander, let the soul exile.

Qing Zhou - Editor, Simple Style Magazine, Bejing.

Doug's Gym

Once there was a gym

Doug Eidd put a $1k deposit on a little POS gym on Commerce Street in Dallas, Texas during the hot summer of 1962. He saw the future fitness kick coming way before Oliva Newton-John sang about it, Gold’s Gym preached it, and way before 24-Hour Fitness was dreamed up in some marketing meeting. He made it his for the next 56 years.

Lee Porter - writer and man of the world.

A Texas State of Mind

"When you view one of his fab way-out images the body can’t help but twitch….oooooo….I’m feelin’ it,…yeah this it it baby! Are you feelin’ it? If you isn’t, then you gotta a blown fuse, and should have your oil changed'.

Jason Huerta, Underground Artist, Austin

Fair Park

More than just Art Deco, but lets stop there

The photographer's most important and likewise most difficult task is not learning to manage his camera, or to develop, or to print. It is learning to see photographically — that is, learning to see his subject matter in terms of the capacities of his tools and processes, so that he can. instantaneously translate the elements and values in a scene before him into the photograph he wants to make.

Edward Weston - Photographer, Carmel-by-the-Sea, California, 1955
