There’s still time to join Frans Lanting, Tom Mangelsen and me at our next MASTERS OF NATURE PHOTOGRAPHY seminar in Denver, Colorado, April 12th to 14th.

Hope to see you in Denver.
It has become a year of firsts for me: in Japan I was able to photograph the Steller’s sea eagles for the first time, and now when I am in Chilean Patagonia, I have been able to photograph Southern South American pumas and their cubs. A couple of these photos will surely find their way into my next book project for 2014.

Last weekend I was given the Lifetime achievement award by the North American Nature Photographers Association (NANPA). These are people that believe in the things I hold dear and we recognize that preserving the beauty of nature is a labor of love.
