My Introduction to Wildlife Photography.
Allthough I had been taking photos for many years, they were only ever of holidays or family events – I was simply one of the many people who took photograps, in no way was I a photographer. This began to change in February 2010 when my wife and I were lucky enough to be able […]
White Morph Reddish Egret in Stormy Light
In my two previous posts of a Snowy Egret and a Great Egret I mentioned how the early morning light and a nearby storm gave those images a feeling of drama. These white morph Reddish Egret (Egretta rufescens) images were taken that same morning not long after I created the Great Egret photos. As the […]

Snake Friends
The Western Diamondback is one I’ve seen a couple times. He (she?) lives in that old abandoned house I wrote about a few posts back. Pretty approachable little guy or gal. Snakes.
