Acknowledgements
I am committed to enhancing awareness and educating our youth about our earth’s precious native land and fragile wildlife habitats through my images. I believe we will only appreciate the riches of accomplishment through perseverance and determination when faced with life’s inevitable challenges.
Numerous people have enriched my life, my path of discovery, and the possibilities I’ve encountered along a journey that began 11 years ago as a dream to realize my deepest passion to be a nature photographer. I feel blessed that my travels have opened the door to so many special people from across the world, people who continue to be friends and who provide positive energy and enthusiasm that helps me reach my goals in the photographic and wildlife communities. Without their expertise, coaching, guidance, friendship, love, laughter, encouragement and belief in me, I would not be where I am today. I must also recognize the gifts of Mother Nature, which make the wonders of nature and being a nature photographer possible. My gratitude to:
