Dear Guest,
I have noticed the world rapidly changing during the fifty years I have been photographing nature. Some photographic opportunities that were common when I began have become rare or nonexistent. All have diminished. Species that were rare are now very close to extinction. Overall the world of nature has diminished in its health and diversity at an ever accelerating pace. All of us are the reason and a child could predict the result.
The changes I witnessed have driven me to see and photograph as much as I can while it is still possible. I share a few of those photographs on this website.
Because the images are organized by subject, older photographs that were captured on various types of film are displayed next to images from the latest digital cameras. Some photographs would be better If modern digital cameras existed when they were captured, but today's best camera cannot capture subjects that are gone. I am fortunate to have had the film. I am even more fortunate to have had the experiences.
The photographs come from Australia, Malaysia, and North America. They are organized into five small galleries: Terrain, Water, Trees, Birds, and Mammals. To view details, all images are expandable to a maximal size appropriate for the device in use.
Most mages here are heavily curated from my other website dmcPhoto.com, while a few are displayed only here. All photographs that appear on this site have been reprocessed to the best of my ability and are available with less compression and higher resolution.
I am a member of, and adhere to, the Nature First principles of responsible nature photography. If you also enjoy capturing photographs in natural environments,  I hope you will too.
Dean
