This is out at the Ruby Lake National Wildlife Reserve, which around here is better known as the Ruby Marshes. I had headed out there to try taking pictures of birds. I hadn't been out for too long when the sky started to turn black. I started taking pictures, then I realized that I was by far the tallest object anywhere around and I should probably high tail it back to my car. Boy was that a good decision! I got soaked on the way back to the car, but at least I got there before the lightning started. Luckily the storm passed pretty quickly and I was able to get out and get some bird photos after all.

I became fascinated with photography as a teenager while spending my summers with my grandmother in Montana. There I was inspired by the great sweeping landscapes and the beautiful evening light. I was hooked and my parents were kind enough to buy me my first real camera. I have since spent countless hours exploring with my various cameras and learning in the field. My home is now in Elko, Nevada. One of my favorite things to do is go exploring around this part of Nevada with my camera. I love to capture elements of the beautiful, diverse, and wild area that I am lucky to call home. Thanks for visiting!
