| The images in my portfolios
contain a cross-section of my work. Each image is born from a love of
nature, created from the pleasure of being outdoors. They are derived from
an experience of being in nature. While I may not remember technical
information, f-stop or shutter speed, I can recall the feelings or
experiences of that moment. I feel that the experience while creating the
image is as important as the final image Every nature photographer I know started out "taking pictures" of nature because they enjoyed the experience of being in nature first, before the image. It's very easy to get caught up in the idea that an image must be publishable or good enough to place in a contest. It's true that seeing your work published is flattering, but an image shouldn't be judged a success based on its ability to be marketed or win a contest. It's my hope that the images viewed in these portfolios convey the feelings and emotions of the moment the image was captured.
