HOW I GOT INTO NATURE PHOTOGRAPHY (PDF-1421)

What motivates me in nature photography is probably a little unusual and I will sketch it out so that you know where I am coming from. I was a naturalist from the time I was six-years old until I discovered how beautiful women are at the age of say sixteen. I kind of segued out of nature study when I was around seventeen. We can perhaps all agree that nature is serene and beautiful but I am not as sure that all of us are aware that nature is also fierce and a very harsh mistress.
