This gallery is dedicated to my buddy Tim. Without his skills in finding wildlife, his grit in getting out of a warm sleeping bag at 4:30 AM when its 12 degrees outside and one can see his own breath inside a tent trailer, and then wading through thigh high ice-crusted water before sunrise to get in the right place, I would not see, let alone photograph, half of what I've posted to my galleries over the last year.

Many of you have commented that my photography has improved siginficantly over the years. This is in no small part to the mentoring provided by Tim. That said, he is developing a photography business where he tutors individuals and leads group workshops. So if you or anyone you know, whether a novice wanting to learn some basics, or an experienced photographer wanting to expand their horizons, I recommend you go to Tim's website and then contact him about what he can offer.
