    Gracie was very helpful in showing me some features on my camera and even followed up with me afterwards to help me find my camera's manual. I left the class with ideas on how to start taking more pictures and what I should focus on learning about.

    Chuck Milledge
    Changes made to improve my health and become more active led me to the discovery of a new passion - photography. Wanting to continue to learn and improve, I became a member of the Professional Photographers of America where I'm currently working on my path to becoming a certified Master Photographer. I'm also a member of the North American Nature Photography Association where I've learned a great deal about Nature Photography.

    It's been an incredible journey and I've come to a point where I want to give back and share the incredible things I've learned along the way. In doing so, I hope to inspire the same passion I feel for photography into others that they might experience the joy and fulfillment that photography has given me! I look forward to working with you!

    The sunsets on the most northern part of Myrtle Beach is a site to see. It was my goal during this vacation to get a seagull in a photo. This is my favorite time to walk on the beach. I?ve enjoyed photographing ? the point? at sunrise and set for over 47 years.

    Took the photo while taking a walk downtown on a Saturday evening. I'm not usually good at bringing out the One of the newer murals around downtown. I found this image after recently reading about the Monarch Butterfly fund and thought of it as a lucky find. When editing, I wanted to bring out the vibrancy of the art, in hopes that it would remind people of the beauty found amongst the creatures so often forgotten

    The view is outside my Brother's home in Fort Wayne, IN. We had the garage door open for band practice and saw this beautiful sunset. I saw the dandelion glowing in the light and took a couple shots. This was my favorite composure.

    I was hiking in the flooded trails of the nature preserve in my hip waiters. The water was near the top of the waiters waiting to spill in. Luckily it didn?t. As I came across trail 6 that headed towards the side of the train tracks, all a sudden around the corner comes adult swan and the babies! An incredible moment to capture as I stood their watching the babies learn the way of living!

    This Tigress took a long swim to cool off from the soaring afternoon heat exceeding 100 degrees. We waited for more than 2 hours to get our vehicle close enough to have a clear shot of her and her three subadults, resting along the water?s edge nearby. The offspring slept and stretched while she kept a keen lookout. Captured in April 2025.

    This ground to sky upward lightning was captured on May 1, 2025 near Bandera Texas using a full frame digital Nikon with a 28mm lens. I had the ISO set to 200 and the aperture at F/9 focused to infinity. It is a 30 second exposure. This was a very lucky shot as I had just moved the camera to view this portion of the sky moments before it happened. Although it looks like the lightning is coming from the ground, it's actually emerging from a tall radio tower about 6 miles out. The image is
