for everyone

This is the Preston Castle Series. I have taken a unique approach to photographing this wonderful piece of Amador county history. I have captured what I think is the essence of the condition in which this beautiful castle is currently in. From ghosts to flowers, you will find these images unique and suitable for collecting. I still have some first edition prints available for purchase by phone. The rest are available for purchase from this site.

If you are interested in donating time or money to the restoration of this historic Castle, you may contact the Preston Restoration Committee For Information call (209) 274-4112 or visit their website at Preston CastleThey need all the help they can get.
