On Toward A Personal Style, December 4, 2008
Michael, an excellent article. The article brings to light a lot of key points on the main subject of personal development & style. I also have found that my round file receives more images over the past few years then it surely did in the earlier years. There is real credence in that fact. Thanks for taking time to post this very informative perspective from our world of photography.
Hey Lon, this is a wonderful article which was extremely well thought out and written too. Your take and overall perspective on the subject theme is "right on". I think most photographers after several years of chasing iconic shots seem to settle in on their own way of seeing and capturing things. I know I have been lucky to be in the field with a few of the NPN members over the years, including yourself, and I find that we can all be within 50 yards of each other at times and come away with completely different takes on similar subjects.  I also agree with Harley o
On Finding Inspiration, April 14, 2009
Alain, well written and overall a very informative article. Thank you for sharing it with us.
On Big Bend National Park, Texas, August 30, 2009
A wonderful outline on this park, Darren. I would love to add this location to my unending list of places to see and photograph. Thanks for sharing this information here at NPN.
Darwin, this was very well outlined and written. I also keep my Polarizer and array of Grad Filters handy at all times. I think we all try our best to catch the light in lower contrast, but not always an easy task and can surely limit the time slots for shooting. Thanks for posting this article.
Guy, another well written article by you with regard to photography being an art form, as well as photographers aspiring or claiming to be fine art producers. Thanks for taking time and sharing your excellent insight here.
On Nature Photography, July 7, 2012
Some very nice reflective thoughts about the trip, Guy. Your comment about hearing the owl hooting in the distance at first light immediately struck a cord for me. Gosh, how lucky can we be to take those singular fond memories with us always.
On Wolf Snares In My Backyard, March 9, 2013
Brad, first and foremost thank you for your efforts and I applaud the positive outcome you've managed to obtain at this point in time in BC. As a 20 year supporter and longtime member of Defenders of Wildlife I know only too well about the long time wolf protection & recovery efforts especially in the western hemisphere of North America. Your research of the statistics and the numbers listed in the "cost of a wolf" surely highlights the fact that the perceived damage is not anywhere near what many might think it is. Also, the history points
On Wolf Snares In My Backyard, March 9, 2013
Brad, thanks for the additional statistics. Two more interesting points you've mentioned. The first one about the number of folks killed by cattle in just 4 years in the last decade and in just 4 states, and secondly, the history with regard to the human deaths in Eurasia by wolves. I do recall a bit of history about the Black Forest with some deaths and it possibly leading to some of the folklore with little red riding hood and big bad wolves in general. However, the number of folks killed by wolves to be in the thousands in all of Eurasia is a bit of a shock. All interesting facts a
