Once Upon a Bavarian Winter is so much more than the typical travel guide. Ronald Harmon makes the German village of Oberammergau come alive with his detailed, warm, and insightful observations of the human and animal friends he meets there on annual visits.     -Linda Anderson, co-author of Angel Animals, Exploring Our Spiritual Connection with Animals.

Part memoir, part travel log, part cookbook...Once Upon a Bavarian Winter reads like a warm conversation with a lifelong friend, one you'll want to keep around on your bookshelves for many years to come.                                                                             -Rusty Fischer, Author of The Buzz on Travel

Reading your chapters makes me feel warm and cozy like sitting in front of a fire on a cold, snowy day. I usually don't like winter at all - but I loved it when I read Once Upon a Bavarian Winter.

Once Upon a Bavarian Winter is like freshly baked bread and a hot cup of coffee after a day at work. Cozy!

Intimate India

 Intimate India is a photographic portfolio of images from the southern state of Andhra Pradesh. In working on this book I tried to think of each of my photographs as something more than a snapshot. The images are un-stylized,  evoke fascination, and show a unique view. All of my work is candid or taken on the go, and I try to create compelling, unforgettable, moving images that reveal the universality of human emotion. I look for beauty, also, but in essence, that is really a huge thing and far too large to fit into any one book. So I look for beauty through the people I photograph – young, old, man, woman, or child. It takes hundreds of shots to capture even a part of it, but that beauty is there in my photographs to be appreciated.
