Nature & Wildlife
Some of the most enjoyable photographs I take are of plant life. The variety of colors, shapes, compositions, textures, and beauty are endless. I have gotten some of my most beautiful images next to a curb of a busy street or otherwise “ugly” locations. It is a wonderful reminder that you can find beauty anywhere. Many images in this gallery a testament to that.
While I don’t focus my lens on animals often, when I do, they’ve captured my imagination and inspired me to want to do it more. Photographing the iconic Japanese Red-Crowned Crane has been a highlight of my experience as a photographer.
