BIO
Missouri wildlife, maverick photography. With every click of the shutter are memories captured, memories of my numerous encounters. In the beginning it was lack of funds to purchase the equipment ethical for wildlife photography. Now it's the experience, spiritual to pear into the eyes of the subject and the time short to click the shutter and imprison the moment so cherished. No longer will the memories be bound to conscience, they are now allowed to be observed in the physical. The walk away is another valued experience, looking back on the eye to eye connection of me and the animal. Every photograph has carved a signature onto my soul, to never be forgotten in the life and mind of mine. This I now share with you through the means of the net. To observe and share with you my growth and my maturing skills and knowledge of photography, little knowledge learned from a book or guidance from the wiser, majority was learned from observation of my self and the inspiration of another from magazines among other sources. Maverick photography, maverick defined is, nonconformist. via maverick wildlife photography, deviant is opposite of the norm. Norm, being normal, anything that deviants from the norm could be called unethical. Which are the charges I've read by the norm. My photography requires knowledge of the wildlife behavior, as well as the equipment used. There are numerous strategies, differing by animal, I click the shutter and the art is there, the seconds to snap the shot are few, allowing the truth to come through the photographs, so observe nature's truth and beauty that will hopefully be shown by the photographs displayed here.
