Zen
I composed this shot in Canada at dusk. It was an overcast day with storm clouds overhead. This blue mist started to arise as the fleeing sun vanished under the mountains. The conditions where perfect - the light was soft and tender, the air was still and tranquil, and the mist added incredible depth and dimension. Seconds later, the mist and light vanished and the shot was gone.

Biography
I am a young, passionate nature and wildlife photographer specializing in vast scenic landscapes. After receiving my first camera at the age of twelve-years old, I began taking photographs of the grand landscapes in the Everglades National Park and later moved on to other locations throughout the country.
My work has already been recognized by several prestigious organizations, including the Audubon Society, Nature’s Best Photography, and USA Landscape Photographer of the Year. My photograph, Nature’s Crown Jewel, was honored as a Top 100 Image in Nature’s Best Photography Yellowstone
