Introduction | A graduate of Shippensburg University, I retired from the PA Game Commission in 2007 after many years as a Maintenance Worker, Maintenance Supervisor, and Deputy Wildlife Conservation Officer. I have been interested in wildlife photography since 1974, and cinematography since 1990 and have been published in Bugle Magazine, Pennsylvania Magazine, The PA Game Commission Calendar, and have released two documentary films, "The Truth About Pennsylvania's Elk Herd" and "Running Wild In Pennsylvania Elk Country". I also provided a significant portion of the footage for The Elk Country Visitor Center's theater presentation. Most of the wildlife footage other than elk was shot by me and I also shot a substantial portion of the elk footage including the tremendous bull fight at the end. I use the Canon 5D MK III, 70D, and 7D DSLRS with a battery of L lenses for still photography, For video, I have a Canon XL-H1 fitted with a nanoFlash, but it is seldom used any more and I have mostly switched to Panasonic mirror-less cameras for this purpose. My current front line video acquisition tool is the GH4, but I have the GH3 and GH2 also and use them when the need arises. |
