Pledge week here too. If it's the one I am thinking of though it's a very good show.

Mike, thanks for the heads up. I just got done watching it. It was absolutely fantastic. I never knew he was a professional pianist. His drive as his photography developed is inspiring. It was also emphasized how much he manipulated his prints, creating different moods from the same negative. However, most of all his absolute love of all things wild and free came through loud and clear.

All nature photographers should see this presentation. :wavey:

I bought this DVD a few years back, I love it, fantastic program. I agree all nature photographers should see this.

Holy crap...that's a rough one.

And I missed the show - hopefully there's a rebroadcast sometime. :frown:

It's being re-broadcast here on Sunday morning March 23 at 10:30 a.m. I expect to be out making pictures, so I have it set to be recorded.
