I am a professional freelance photographer with a major bent towards wildlife of all kinds. I have been blessed to have been published by numerous magazines and government publications. I am available for assignments and my work is available for purchasing and or licensing. I certainly enjoy scenics, but have really been turned on by wild animals, birds, etc.. I have served on various art committees, co-founded and recently retired as Vice President of the Nature Photographers of the Pacific Northwest (www.nppnw.org), recently retired as Director for Northwest Outdoor Writer's Association (NOWA) and former Elder for Shan Creek Community Bible Church. I am always interested in good critique, so please provide constructive comments you feel would be appropriate. I do get extremely busy and frequently absent from my computer, so please forgive me if/when I am unable to comment on your wonderful images. All images are copyrighted...do not download, copy or use any of my images in any way without my written permission. Contact me for purchasing information or licensing rights via flickr or my email address:Kirklands@q.com.
