This picture of a caracal was taken at the Portland, Oregon zoo. Also known as a desert lynx. I have another picture of this beautiful cat in a stalking stance.
I am conflicted about zoos in general, but feel the Portland Zoo does a fairly good job of trying to create nice habitats for their animals. They are currently expanding the area for elephants. Half of any of my proceeds from my "zoo" pictures will be donated to the Portland Zoo so they may further their work of educating and enlightening people and children about the wonder and importance of all creatures, great and small.

Nature, animals, beauty have been a source of nourishment throughout my life. Photography allows me to capture, interpret, and share that world of wonder I see about me, and sometimes use what I capture as an inspiration to create something new, by incorporating other exposures, textures or brushwork.
I currently reside in Oregon, an environment rich in nature's graces. I have lived in California and New York, too, and everywhere there is a world of beauty around us, if we care to take the time and look for it.
