Nature Photography Seminars

Do you love to shoot nature photography? I know that I love to travel and get up before sunrise to shoot a cool landscape or the dew on a flower.

Reality TV becomes reality…

When super producer Mark Burnett asked me to shoot his new reality TV show, The Contender, I viewed it with a bit of trepidation. Who will watch a show about boxers. I kinda thought that too when he told me of The Apprentice. Survivor in the boardroom, but who would like Trump! Boy was I wrong.
