I know a lot of people think the zoo is for the kids, but to me…it’s just a great way to watch a wide variety of wildlife without traveling the globe. Although, if anyone wants to finance my worldwide photo safari… ;-)

Lots more of my zoo animal photos here.

The fields were in full color, the sun was warm and there was a fresh breeze. It was a truly spectacular day. I loved the play of the light through the whites yesterday.

I put together this set of photos thinking that it will make a beautiful art piece. Thin Wrap Canvases ready to hang are available, unmounted prints can be made available if there is a demand. Let me know!

They’re a riot of vibrancy and beauty. Every row seems to compete for your attention and yet they all combine to create a harmony that I find peace and comfort in.

The Skagit Valley has some beautiful scenery and when the fields are in full color they are spectacular.

I worked with Toma a fair bit while we both lived in Anchorage, Alaska. She's an absolute delight to work with and we had a lot of fun together on all our shoots. Nothing was too crazy to try and it was often difficult to pick our favorite images from each session. Our Harlequin Romance series was one of my favorites. We had the benefit of the skill and talent of her friend Yulia, who is a professional body & face painter.

This was one of those sessions where all the pieces came together and today, all the pieces came together once more. I love the effect, the smoke (which I shot at an entirely different time) creates with this shot.

It’s a small thing, but beautiful.

I spent a lot of time looking at the little details, that we so often just step right over.

I loved how this feather contrasted with the kelp on the beach.
