Gar Travis, a 1978 graduate of Fork Union Military Academy and United States Coast Guard Veteran served as a numismatic research consultant for more than fifteen years in North Carolina following his enlistment. He has dabbled in film photography and was an early experimentalist in the field of digital numismatic photography. Moving to California in 2004 to assume a position with an internationally known numismatic auction house as a cataloger/photographer, Gar brought with him a love of photography and his cameras.

Wanting to show where he has been and what he has seen to his long time friends in North Carolina and willing to share his visual captures with the world, Gar offers this web site. In addition to his many business and hobby interests, Gar is the Chief of Photography of UltraFlight magazine, a contributing editor to The NUMISMATIST magazine, Special Events Photographer for Riley’s Farm, Ship's Photographer for the American Pride and an Advisor to the Children's Maritime Foundation.

Gar has written and photo-illustrated his first book; Cyprus Coins, which was published in 2006 by the Cyprus Museum. The book offers a numismatic chronology of Cyprus and features coins housed in the museum.
