Artist Statement
We often don't notice Nature's beauty because we're too busy or we don't bother to pay attention. When I go out to photograph Nature, I try to be mindful
of whatever Nature reveals to me. Sometimes it's a colorful butterfly or a bird actually sitting still to pose for me. Other times, a bird is exhibiting an interesting
or unusual behavior. I always marvel at the ability of birds to fly so effortlessly. I try to photograph these moments in time; some happen so fast, it's difficult or
impossible for us to see with our eyes. In these photographs I provide a peek into the Nature that surrounds us. I hope you enjoy the photographs as much as
I enjoyed taking them.
