About Me

My photo
Coy Hill
South Central Pennsylvania, United States
Cutting my teeth on Minolta 101 & 102's in the 70's, I am now rediscovering photography in the digital age. Having been a hunter all of my life and a Deputy Wildlife Conservation Officer for over two decades, my photography interest focuses predominately on wildlife. Photography allows me to interact with and observe wildlife in ways that consumptive only hunting could never hope to. My hope is that sharing my work through Country Captures will encourage others to find a deeper appreciation for our natural world. My photography has been published by a number of magazines and organizations including Outdoor Life, Field & Stream, Pennsylvania Magazine, Pennsylvania Game Commission, and British Shooting Sports Association. All comments are welcome; photographic critique as well as agreement or disagreement with my expressed views on any subject. If you like what you find here please add Country Captures to your list of links, I appreciate it.
