Nature Photography by Hank Vander Velde, Pbase Member since 2006

Unless noted, all nature Photographs in these galleries have been taken in the "WILD", if one considers local ponds and parks where creatures are free to come and go to also belong to the "WILD". Simply click on the "thumbnail" photos to display the specific, or desired gallery. Then, click on the "thumbnail" images to display additional galleries or enlarged photos. Click on "next" or "previous" to scroll through the images or return to the main page by clicking "All Galleries" at the top of the screen. In some instances, I've tried to show animal behaviour by posting a "SERIES" of consecutive shots on one page. Simply scroll to the bottom of those pages. Scroll down to see all thumbnails.
