I haven’t really talked about my new website since it is still a work in progress, but one of the things I really like about it is the Showcase page. In particular, we just put up a new showcase featuring prints available from Earth Is My Witness.
I have been a member of North American Nature Photography Association since its inception in 1994. Every year they hold well-attended regional events and a summit, attended by photographers such as me. As education is one of their missions, they offer scholarships to young, emerging nature photographers in high school and college.
From Black Friday to Cyber Monday, the North American Nature Photography Association (NANPA) will be offering 50% off of general membership to NEW members.
To learn more about this special deal and others, click the banner below and use the Promo Code: BLACKFRIDAY to get the discount starting on Friday, November 28th.
As part of DPReview’s Live event earlier this month, I sat down with Barnaby so he could ask me some questions about my work, vision and philosophy. They’ve posted the video, taped at CreativeLive, for those who didn’t catch it live.
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.

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.
Within a 4,000 square foot exhibition hall, 60 large-format prints are displayed—some at nearly life-sized proportions—with two accompanying HD videos. Museum visitors are taken along on a virtual global safari and are introduced to the image-makers and their stories from behind the camera lens.
Art is featured as the Photographer of the Year in recognition of his extraordinary body of
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.
