A trip to Africa in summer of 2007 re-kindled my love of photography. My favorite subjects include birds, wildlife, sports, flowers, nature landscapes, and of course, my experience in Africa.

Please enjoy the beauty and serenity of nature, the ballet of sports action, and the people & scenery of Malawi in these galleries.

Awesome photos and photography!! I looked at most of your images in your gallery....I love your photos of the raptors, waterfowl, and especially the photos of raptors in flight. The photos where they captured their prey....exceptional! The colors...beautiful! Great work.

Never mind...just saw you did post the lunar eclipse pics.

Just stopping by again to browse a great gallery. Nice meeting you at the lunar eclipse. Hope yours turned out sharper than mine...darn that marine layer.

Hi Allen,
It was wonderful to meet you yesterday at the deck via ShorlineDrive and let me peek your camera with ef500mm. I admire your work. They are beautiful and amazing colors. Thank you very much for sharing and I will be checking your web site from time to time.

Take care and hopefully I can join you on your photo shooting adventures.

Respecfully yours,
