• Retroactive Resolution

    I should give myself an award or something. And now that I think about it, I should have also made a New Year’s resolution out of my decision to go cold turkey. After all, resolutions are mostly about quitting things like not exercising, not eating or not having fun. This one fits right in. Maybe… Continue Reading

  • Edgy advice no one wants

    I am astounded that aspiring wildlife photographers aren’t lining up to acquire my tried-and-true methods for making better wild critter images.

Every few minutes the vehicle stops to the sound of shutters firing as an exotic African predator takes… Continue Reading

  • Tongue in Cheek Collection

    Wildlife photography is a serious pursuit. Except when it’s not. Oh sure, there is highly refined gear to master, an artistic and technical learning curve, and it really helps to have luck mixed with whatever patience I can muster. The eagerly awaited results can be jaw dropping or mortifying – both only add to the hopelessly… Continue Reading
