Breakthrough Photography Launches New Ultra Slim Filters

Just under 3 weeks left to get in on these breakthrough filters at a discount and be part of helping to launch a new company!

I’ve been using these filters for several months already and I love them. I’m really impressed with their quality and the optics – and with the young entrepreneur who saw complacency in the market and was willing to go up against entrenched competition with a better mouse trap. That takes some guts and he pulled it off.

Pushkar Camel Fair

Now is the time of year for the Pushkar Camel Fair and here is a look back when I was filming there for my TV show Travels to the Edge. I did an audio postcard for PRI’s The World, which they used as an answer to the Geo Quiz.

A few of the images from that trip are featured in Earth Is My Witness.

Opening of Windland Smith Rice International Awards Exhibition at the Smithsonian

Cuernos del Paine, Torres del Paine National Park, Chile

Opening today on the 2nd Floor the National Museum of Natural History Presents the Annual Nature’s Best Photography Windland Smith Rice International Awards Exhibition.

work over the past 40 years and the contributions he has made to natural history awareness. “Photographers everywhere are making a difference in the way we see the world and our place in it,” says Wolfe. “Never stop looking: no matter where you are,
there are good photographs to be made.”

Art will be doing a book signing of Earth Is My Witness on November 13, as well as attending the awards presentations that night.
