Active Light Photography

You know the elusive Merlin spends winter hunting at Shoreline, but you're not sure where. And there are more ducks than you can count, but how do you get close - and why are there so many in winter?

You don't need thousands of dollars to capture the great wildlife images you're dreaming of. What you really need is knowledge - knowledge I've condensed for you from years of field experience. Let me show you the best way to approach egrets and herons, bison and skunks - without taking out a second mortgage for camera gear.

Wildlife: Stealth Approach for an Intimate View shows you how to photograph your favorites, and what you need to do it. This eBook seminar starts with basic techniques you can apply to any wild animal. Then it tells you how to photograph critters doing interesting things - black-necked stilt chicks pacing, burrowing owls yawning, skunks looking surprised, elk fighting - where to find them, and how to get close. It's illustrated with images to inspire you. And it's easy to order.

No more wondering where to get the money for that huge lens - you'll discover you don't need it! Get all the pictures you want for about what your next U.S. trip costs - depending on the gear you have already. Then let me teach you to use it well for great pictures of those rare animals you love.

You could find some of the information on the web - but it would take a long time to chase it all down. And I've put together tips you won't get unless you learn them the way I did - in the field. You'll save time learning from me - I've been there before!
