Posing with two Backyard Bird Photography books
Having a little fun here, moments after taking the books out of the box. Always a great moment for an author.

Right in the garden where it all took place.
I’ve been informed that the first printing of my book BACKYARD BIRD PHOTOGRAPHY has been purchased by a large retailer, and the book is going back to press even before the official publication date in order to satisfy the demand from other retailers. This means August 5 is now the official publication date.
I just pre-ordered a few copies of the book from Sam’s Club. This might be a good place to buy books, especially since they bought out the first printing of mine.
My advance copies arrived on my doorstep two days ago. This photograph was taken moments after I opened the box. It is always a surreal moment when an author sees the first printed copies of his work. In this case, I lucked out. I’m in my garden, where most of the photographs in the book were taken. This book will make a nice catalogue for my exhibition at the Roger Tory Peterson Institute January 13 through March 8, 2015.
The photographer ponders his handiwork in preparation for a major exhibition.
