I remember waking up early morning and seeing some incredible color's in the sky. I really wanted to incorporate in my photos that morning but it unfortunately unsuccessful. however the following evening the color's at sunset were even more beautiful and vibrant. I went along the waterfront to photograph migrating waterfowl when I came across this pair of red breasted mergansers aligned with peak colors reflecting on lake Ontario. I got straight to work and came home with this picture and is one of my favorite images I've taken to date.

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.
