Doing close-up photography is kind of one of my specialties and I was pretty happy with my work…..until I saw Mike Moats images! I really admire his vision, his technical expertise and of course, his art! Mike and Jack Graham used to teach together and Jack tells the story that after a few early morning risings to do a sunrise, Mike said he would rather sleep in and became a close-up shooter, not sure that that is the whole story, but I’m glad he chose this path, I hope you enjoy his work as much as I do!

When I think of who of my favorite photographers are the most “Pure Artists” only one name comes to mind, Guy Tal. While I love the work of many photographers and they all have their own special charm, the most peaceful moments come when I look through a gallery of Guy’s work. The way he handles color and compositions are just breathtaking! See if you don’t agree in this small sampling!

When I think of Jack Graham, photographically, I think of the “Decisive Moment”! In all my years of working with and teaching with Jack I have seen this consistent pattern in his approach, he strives to be on location at the decisive moment. I can remember many a morning sitting in the pitch black dark, to be sure we are there if and when it happens! More than often it has paid dividends! The shot above of the wild horses in Iceland is a perfect example of his “at the perfect moment” timing! Whether it is the perfect season, perfect light or action of the wildlife, Jack is a master!
I’ve been blessed to be his partner on so many great adventures!

I’ve long been a big fan of Jim Begley’s work and recently he has become a gifted drone photographer as well. The image above of a curve near Laural Lake in all four seasons is spectacular! I will give you links to his images at the end, and I highly recommend you visit them, you will be inspired!
