Background: I started out as an artist, became a pilot, and ended up where I am now: nature photographer and educator…hope you enjoy the images and useful products.
Featured Image: Bison at sunset
Background Story on Image: Bison Sunset was taken in the Badlands of South Dakota and required over one hundred images to get their bodies, tails and heads in the orientation and sharpness I was looking for, nevertheless, every attempt was just pure fun and made a perfect ending to the day.
Artist statement: Being a pilot allowed me to observe the Earth and humanity’s impact on it from 30,000 feet for many years. It allowed me to experience different cultures and to see the world through many lenses. For over a decade now, I’ve devoted myself to the art of nature photography in an effort to inspire my fellow citizens (from around the world) to think, protect, and enhance biodiversity (our life-support system), and in-turn humanity’s long-term physical and spiritual health. I salute the Wildlands Network for its efforts in this area.

Wolves: A Keystone Species
Where there are wolves, there are vibrant aspen forests and healthy elk populations, meadows and songbirds.
