Hobby Photography with a Telephoto lens


When I'm not following my passion of photographing weddings or portraits, I absolutely love exploring local parks and seeing where my camera takes me. This led me to purchase a 180-600mm lens and WOW, was it worth it!


After a two mile hike through the woods of the Holly Recreation State Park, I came across the Barred Owl. The sleepy owl stared at me for a while and allowed me to capture some of the beautiful images. If you find yourself in Holly, MI, you might just stumble across me wandering through the woods!
