I did not seek to become a wild-life photographer at the beginning of my career. I knew I wouldn't have the patience, nor the tenacity. However, life has an interesting way to teach one to never say never.*
My recent travels have brought me to places where I simply could not resist photographing. I mean, without making a great image, how could you show off your encounter with this black bird, the yellow-hooded blackbird? In fact, how would you even go about explaining that such a beauty exists, without expending one thousand words? ;-) That's why, I chose the jump-first-question-later approach. Aren't you glad I did?
*My partner Wayne (as in a CPA firm, in my previous life) used to always say "never say never" and it stuck with me for all these years. I feel that I should give him credit for how I don't ever say never, publicly. :D
