Capturing the Wonder of our Natural World
Yesterday was Nature Photography Day, a celebration for anyone who loves the outdoors and the art of capturing it. Whether your passion is wildlife, landscapes, or the quiet little moments in between, it’s a day to honor the beauty of our natural world.
The North American Nature Photography Association (NANPA) established the day in 2009 to encourage people to enjoy, appreciate, and photograph nature in all its forms.
I began nature photography as my hobby a number of years ago. Here are some of my earlier efforts. I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed being out there taking them.
White Tail Deer (South Dakota)
Grand Canyon (Arizona)
Prickly Pear Cactus (Arizona)
Great Blue Heron (Massachusetts)
Painted Desert (Arizona)
Water Lily (Massachusetts)
Queechee Gorge (Vermont)
Moonrise (Florida)
Trumpeter Swan (Massachusetts)
Looking back at these early photos reminds me why I fell in love with nature photography in the first place. Thanks for taking this little trip down memory lane with me.
