The Natural Image
My Nature / Landscape workshops are designed for all levels of photographers
looking to improve their visual literacy while learning about human interaction with the
different fragile ecosystems that we have here in Iowa.
Learn to let your vision evolve as you look over the landscape - Nature has to more than
one right answer.
I have been photographing one of the most endangered ecosystems in the United States for
the past 12 years, The Tallgrass Prairies here in Iowa.
The prairies have given me enthusiasm, joy and peacefulness. They are challenging, full of
frustration, and can be downright unbelievable at times. The slightest poof of air sends
the Blazing Star into its wavy dances; the orb cobweb shakes and jiggles with the
slightest breeze. But when the Heavens shine upon you, the light is great, there is no
breeze, and the grasses and flowers are showing off their splendor it it all worth
capturing photographs of the last remaining prairie lands.
One of the most important aspects of these workshops is
about being and ethical person when out viewing,
photographing, or just plan enjoying our beautiful environment.
I would like to leave one important statement with you, and then pass it on to others:
" No photograph is worth making if it is going to adversely effect
the welfare of your subject "
