Don has been a avid wildlife photographer for over 30 years. He has photograghed extensively in the Rocky Mountain region as well as in Kenya, Tanzania, South Africa, Costa Rica, Alaska, Florida and Churchill, Manitoba.

His photography has earned numerous awards and his photos have been used in many magazines, calendars, books and other media. His credits include: Outdoor Photographer, Your Big Back Yard, National Geographic Kids, Canadian Geographic, Wyoming Wildife, Birder's World and WildBird magazines; Audubon and The Humane Society of the United States calendars.

Don shoots with Canon gear: 1-D Mark IV and 7-D bodies; 800mm, 500mm, 70-200mm, 100-400mm and 28-70mm lenses. He doesn't get into the Canon vs. Nikon debate - it's all good - just learn to use the system you have.

Don has a business degree from the University of Wyoming. After college he had career in Colorado, first as a CPA for many years and then in the real estate management business. After over 35 years in Colorado he returned to Wyoming where he devotes much more time to photography. He now lives in Wapiti, Wyoming, just 30 miles from Yellowstone Park.

After also these years he's still looking for that one perfect image.
