My photography helps me connect with the spirit of the things I love in life: wildlife and beautiful scenery. Through my photography I hope to inspire others with the joy I experience in interacting with the natural world.

Featured Photo of the Week: The Thinker
Harbor seals of such wonderful creatures...so expressive and humorous. I'm always amazed at how dexterous they are with their hands!
Debbie Hayes Paul the photo's you take are breath taking, and inspiring. It shows how much you love what you're doing. Thank you for sharing your talent with the world. Or at least our corner or it.

Featured Photo of the Week: Ice Castles
I just love early morning winter light...it sucks the color right out of everything and adds an ethereal feel to the remnants of this ice storm in Yosemite Valley on New Years Eve morning a few years ago. If you look closely, you can see Vernal Falls in the background.

Featured Photo of the Week: I'm too sexy for my shirt
I almost thought I was going to have to get a "model release" from this handsome guy, he was just so content to pose for me :-) Sadly, this magnificent creature was almost hunted to extinction in the early 1900's for the male's breeding plume (seen here in the lower... middle of the shot)...to decorate society ladies' hats. I've never understood that, because the plume looks so much more beautiful on the bird!Read More

Please join me for a 1-day Wildlife Photography Workshop in beautiful Rocky Mountain National Park. I am teaching this workshop through the Denver Darkroom School of Photography in Denver (http://www.denverdarkroom.com).
We will meet at the Denver Darkroom at 8am on Sat Oct 10 for a short classroom session. In this se...ssion I will cover: 1) how to find, track and get close to wildlife; 2) various aspects of composing pleasing/exciting wildlife
photographs; 3) equipment choices (primarily lens selection and the effect it has on the photographs you take) and 4) wildlife photography ethics (i.e., how
to not disturb/stress animals while photographing them).
Following the short classroom session we will travel to Rocky Mountain National Park and photograph until sunset. We will be concentrating on elk during the
fall rut (mating season), although there will also be the possibility of bighorn sheep, moose, coyote, mule deer and eagles.
We will also be meeting again at the Denver Darkroom on Fri Oct 23 at 7pm for a wine and cheese social to review the photographs that everyone took during the workshop.
The cost for this 1-day workshop is only $150!
