If this is your first visit to Peggy's Cove, I'm sure you will find ample photo subjects in that cove and some of the smaller coves along the South Shore! After looking at your work (which is amazing!) I'm sure that a trip to Lawrencetown Beach- just outside Halifax would be a good trip. It is a local spot for surfers, never overly crowded and if the wind is right, great waves! I personally love the whole region- White Point Beach, Chester, Mahone Bay and of course Halifax are all just a short drive away. With three weeks I know you will get to see much of this beautiful province. September is normally a good weather month- still warm,crisp air and maybe some colour changes starting on the trees. Enjoy your stay and I look forward to seeing your photos.
Based on your bio, you may want to check out this website: www.hopeforwildlife.net; the facility is also on the Eastern Shore. There is a wildlife Park in Shubenacadie as well.

Primary Camera Type: Digital SLR

About Me: I started doing photography in grade eight when three of us (Arne Hermann, Andrew Kuprat and Myself) started a Photography Club at school. We convinced our science teacher Mr. Wong Moon to donate a small storage room to us that had a sink in it. It was perfect to get a darkroom setup. We pooled some money and acquired some supplies. When the teachers in charge of putting together the School Annual found out about the club, they asked for our help. We ran the club all three years we were there from grade eight to grade ten.

In Senior High School they actually offered a Photography Course. Even better, they offered a Special Double Block Photography Course. Everyone involved in that course helped out with the School Annual. We also had free access to the schools excellent Dark Room which had Beseler 23c’s in it. Our photography teacher Dietmar Waber, was one of the best teachers I ever had in my life. He influenced me and he is the one that encouraged me to help others. He noticed I got bored very easily and always challenged me and got me involved with teaching others. I owe a lot to him.

While in High School I ended up doing sports photography for some of the local papers including the Richmond Review, the Vancouver Sun and the Province. I even worked with Province Photographer Gary Karmann who still works for the paper today.

Once out of school I did fashion work and moved on to Nature and Landscape photography. I did some work for the Western Canada Wilderness Committee where I helped put together a Slide Presentation that was shown across Canada and Shown in the House of Commons in Ottawa. I worked for Minolta Canada during Expo 1986 in Vancouver and stopped doing photography shortly after that.

I have a Graphic Arts background. I have since owned my own computer company and I am just now getting back into photography to relax and to create art. I have recently gotten involved in Bird Photography and more recently involved in helping birds out through different groups and associations.

I have recently started a new Organization that will soon be a Registered Non-Profit Organization called “Nature By Photo”. Nature By Photo’s motto is “Saving Birds, Animals and the Environment One Photo at a Time!"

Nature By Photo will allow photographers to donate the use (limited rights) of their photos to other Registered Non-Profit Organizations that are involved in helping Birds, Animals and the Environment. Photos can be used on Web Sites, in print on Post Cards, Posters and Advertising Material or even In Calendars and Books.

Organizations benefit by having the best quality photos available for their use at no charge and the photographers gain by having their work published with full credits.

You can get involved soon!
