The nice folks at the Roger Tory Peterson Institute sent me these photos of my exhibit that is currently going on there, called “The Art of Backyard Bird Photography.” For me, it’s like winning the Oscar. Thanks to Elyse Henshaw of the RTPI for taking these great photos.
Another butterfly close encounter. Always a thrill. 
There is nothing like being close to butterflies. This is my author photo for THE ART OF BUTTERFLY GARDENING, due out this spring. 
Just published in the Yosemite Sierra Visitors Guide 2015, page 43. Check out the upper right on the page. Another day, another credit. Hard fought, but worth it. And a nice credit line too, in block caps (i.e. block capital letters in the trade).
Sometimes, in the field, you have to take stock and gather up the energy for another round of intense, close-up photography. It is physically and mentally exhausting. The end result is only the tip of the iceberg as far as the effort is concerned, but it’s worth it. 
Another day at the office.
