Hours Old Crane Chicks

Biography

I enjoy taking pictures of wildlife because to get the great shots you have to be out very early and be very sneaky. I find it so very peaceful when it is just me and the wildlife. In order to get great shots you have to always be prepared and always have your camera. With all of my studies at school, I find the need to get away and use some of the space in my brain for other activities. I also enjoy creating art pieces out of recycled wine bottles. It is a double therapy because you not only get to be creative you also get to bleed a lot and isn’t that the cure for everything?
