A Great Blue Heron perches near the shoreline of North America’s northernmost Bald Cypress swamp. I took this image at dusk from my kayak during the peak of Fall color. A 50mm focal length was used to allow for an expansive scene to show the bird’s environment, while not diminishing the subject in the frame.

Starting in 2007 my fascination with nature photography began.  In the years since, wildlife photography with a focus on birds has gone from a very passionate hobby of mine to become my career. I spend much of my free time in natural areas searching for birds and any other wildlife that comes along. I concentrate on using creative natural lighting and interesting compositions to capture unique images of common and rare wildlife. My favorite style is a more scenic photo that includes some of the habitat wildlife lives in. I also enjoy passing along the knowledge and experience that I have gathered over the years to other photographers who are eager to learn.
