My passion for photography began with an early love affair with birds. They are not only beautiful, but represent the freedom from the bonds of earth and gravity that has made mankind want to fly since time began. The more I watched birds, the more I wanted to photograph them, and I am sharing some of my favourites with you here.
GREAT GRAY OWL HUNTING IN SNOWSTORM
For years I had dreamed of photographing a hunting Great Gray Owl in a snowstorm. One day my friend Pat & I stumbled on one just as heavy wet snow began to fall. Anxiously I mounted my camera and telephoto lens on my tripod sure that the bird would fly before I could get this shot. Fortunately, it waited just long enough before disappearing into the forest. Then the snow stopped just as abruptly, and the dream moment was gone! Lucky for me, the memory was captured forever in my camera.
