Capturing the light of life

“Making images of life and experiences, whether it be the natural beauty of the wilderness and its inhabitants, a portrait to be enjoyed for time immemorial, or a favorite song played to a crowd of endearing fans, has grown into an incredible passion for me.  Photography allows me a way to share these fleeting, beautiful moments with those that could not be there with me”

This week's featured image on the Life in Nature print gallery! 10/20-10/26 2025

Bull elk standing in a mountain meadow surrounded by his harem

With the elk rut now wound down, this week’s featured image comes from a visit with one of the “winners” of the season captured a few years ago.  He had gathered his herd of at least 50-60 cows, and regardless of the rut being done, he still kept vigilant watch for any would-be intruders, including myself! Defender of the Harem is 20% off through Sunday, October 26th, so head HERE now to purchase a print of your own and enjoy this victorious champion in your home or office every day!
