Richard McGuire

This site is my forum for sharing with you my photographs, interests, experiences and knowledge.

I am a former journalist, who has never given up the need to communicate. Journalism is more than just an occupation -- it's a way of life. Today, I work in the political field as Executive Assistant to Murray Calder, Member of Parliament for Dufferin-Peel-Wellington-Grey in Canada. I'm still active in communication, but the ideas I communicate are not my own. This site then is a release for my own creativity.

Since the age of five, I have enjoyed photography. In my youth, I had to good fortune to travel the world, and to document those travels with photos. As a journalist, I often took photos to accompany my articles. More recently, I have had showings of my photos, some have been published in international magazines, and I've begun making and selling greeting cards featuring my photos of Canadian landscapes and nature.

Please enjoy the photos and articles. If you like my work, please consider buying something -- my photo cards are a little more unique and personal than mass-produced commercial cards. Whether you buy or not, I enjoy hearing from people around the world who offer comments, or reflect on their own similar experiences.

Welcome.
