Down The Hatch Poster

I watched this Anhinga work for quite a while to get this armored catfish in position to swallow. It was a big fish. You would think this would be a meal for a day. However, she was back in the water for another as soon as she managed to get this one in her throat! She didn't even take time to dry out her wings first.

I love the outdoors and just watching nature and its interactions. One of my favorite things to photograph is wildlife. My goal is to capture a cute behavior, an endearing moment, an interesting facial expression or wildlife in action. A very close second is beautiful scenery. When I was young, I remember looking at a painted scene on my grandmothers wall and daydreaming that I was in that place. So, I naturally look for scenes that encourage one to pause for a moment, relax and breathe. It could be something very simple, a 'stop and smell the roses' moment that most people would overlook on an average day. My desire is for my photographs to evoke a feeling of calm, provide a distraction from stress, dream and maybe even laugh. I trust...
