My path to photography began by birdwatching. By profession I am a veterinarian, but enjoy birding as a hobby.

Not long after purchasing a spotting scope for birdwatching, I stumbled across Ann Cook's digiscoped images of birds, Birds of Manitoba, and was immediately hooked. In June of 2002, I purchased my first digital camera (a Nikon Coolpix 880) and began trying to digiscope images of birds by holding the camera up to the scope.

Birding is often best in the early morning and late afternoon, when the light happens to be best for other photography. While out birdwatching and digiscoping, I began to take photos of the beautiful scenery around me. This eventually led to more and more landscape photography.

In a never ending quest for better resolution to make large prints, I also began stitching (combining multiple photographs to make one large photograph) using Max Lyon's PTAssembler software.

I have since added a SLR digital camera and am now doing more traditional photography, currently using a Nikon D80.

The images in the galleries are the result of this history, I hope you enjoy the images as much as I have the journey.

I am an aquaintance of Diane from the BLM office in Safford, AZ and she gave me your site to look at ducks.
I paint entries for the federal duck stamp show each year and need some new photos. She didn't know if you sold them or let artists use them. I am traveling and my phone is broken until next week. It is 719-338-7527.
Thanks, Mary Welty I check my e-mail weekly. My web site has to be found on google and it will take you to maryweltys photostream if you would like to see a variety of my work.

John, your Mt Adams "Morning Glory" shot is incredible. I've been to the same spot so many times and never had extraordinary light.

You were in the right place, at the right time, and you have the skills that enabled you to make the most of it. Super image John. I could stare at a large print of that shot for hours.
