Photos must be received on or before Sunday, June 15.  Complete details and information on how to submit are here.

Just remember, outdoor photography is fun, even with your camera phone! For me, it’s a great excuse to get outside and enjoy wildlife, fish, parks, landscapes, flora, sunrises, sunsets, and everything else that makes up our natural world, and yes, people, too!

Someone asked me the other day what my secret was to taking good photographs. My answer: I am not an expert photographer whatsoever, but my secret is to shoot a lot of images from a bunch of different perspectives! I often find that I like only one in about three or four dozen shots I have taken of a particular subject such as this male wood duck.

So, grab your digital camera, get out there, have fun shooting pics, subscribe to the magazine and bring on your best ones! We’d love to see them!
