About

Portrait photo taken of Steven H Gordon.

Long story short, I’m a cartographer and casual photographer, a graphic artist and published writer.

I find photography especially rewarding. Seeing, capturing and developing an image from what the camera records are fun, sometimes inspiring other arts.

I live in North Alabama. This area is rich in hills and woods and water. Wildflowers along trails and woods that face the slow-moving waters of peaceful streams attract me. Over everything passes an infinite variety of skies, from threatening thunderheads to the whimsy of cirrus clouds.

Besides visual arts, I enjoy music, especially Russian Orthodox choral music and Native American flute. On that note, I dabble with Native American flutes. Here are two pieces I’m currently composing.

Smoke Drift played on a G minor flute from Blue Bear Flutes and recorded live with a Fifine M6 lavalier microphone and processed in Apple GarageBand software.
Red Cedar played on an A minor flute recorded live with a Fifine M6 lavalier microphone and processed in Apple GarageBand software.
Wasatch: A November drive into the mountains near Ogden, Utah. Original music, “After Hours,” by Steven H Gordon.
