The Highlands 2006 Calendar
Draft of photographer’s write-up
Sunday, November 20, 2005

I discovered photography in childhood but only recently have it become a passion. I am captivated by the beauty of nature, inspired to freeze & preserve its moments of glory, and committed to provide posterity a doorway to re-discovering our world.

Successful landscape photography isn’t difficult. Just like everything else in life, it helps to be in the right place and at the right time. The picturesque Highlands certainly qualified as one of the right places: a combination of mountainous terrain set against a large body of water, a leisure resort surrounded by the natural beauty of wild vegetation and lush forests.

To find the right time, landscape photographers know they only need to wait long enough for the right light to appear. Every scene can look different at different times of the day or of the year.

Imagining, planning, and patiently waiting to capture the moment allows one to portray common scenes in uncommon ways. This ensures our photographs will tell the best stories.
