Bucking the every-other-year trend, I was happy to receive notice that I had made the Audubon Top 100 for 2023.  Still working on winning, but it is good to have goals.

I was totally caught off-guard when I arrived at the gallery.  Not only did I make the cut, I was co-winner of first place in my category!  Totally surprised I had even made it.  The category was "yellow", and not a nature category.

Third time was not quite the charm, but I was still overjoyed to claim a spot in the Audubon Top 100.  My image of a Brown Creeper made their cut for the 2022 Photography Awards.  

I was surprised to be contacted about one of my bat photos.  I have always liked them and was happy to have a chance to have one published; especially for such a good cause.  You can see it here!

I was pleased to have a photo selected for the Friends of Goose Pond 2021 calendar.

I was fortunate, again, to have a photo selected for the 2021 Gallery Night hosted by Robert's Camera.

Smithsonian Magazine picked one of my contest entries as the POTD on 11/12/2020.  You can see it here!

I did not think that I would make it again, but my image of a pair of Greater Prairie Chickens fighting was selected as one of Audubon's Top 100 images submitted for their 2020 competition.

After missing the entry deadline last year, I was excited to have this Prothonotary Warbler selected for display in the 2020 Robert's Camera Gallery Night.

In 2017, I was delighted to have my Short-eared Owl photo chosen for display during Robert's Camera annual Gallery Night exhibition.

In what I hope continues to be an annual experience, I had another photo chosen for publication in the 2017 Friends of Goose Pond calendar.

I was happy to have a photo published in the April/May 2017 edition of the magazine.  I was even happier several months later when a nice woman tracked me down and asked to purchase a copy of the photo.

In 2016, my Blue Grosbeack was also chosen as the People's Choice winner for the Cardinalidae category.
