Wayne T. 'Tom' Helfrich
Drag to set position!
Life-long amateur Herpetologist with vast field experience, amateur photographer, like to fool around with guitar and fish a little. Spend most of my time hiking & nature photography, my favortie places to visit and study nature is Okefenokee swamp and Everglades and everywhere in between. All photos on my site are taken by myself, except as noted, and all nature photos are taken 'in situ' not posed except the obvious hand held ones. I have also included some photos taken by friends and these are noted in the picture notes. I welcome everyone to my site but I reserve the right to block anyone who does nothing but 'Favorite' my photos and never leave a comment. I must assume that any person doing so has alternative motives.

I will not speak here of the man's photos. You can judge those for yourself. I will speak of the man. Tom is first and foremost a man of his word. He is not concerned about being politically correct which means if you ask for his opinion on your accomplishments, you will get a straight answer. Nothing will be buttered up. And it makes any praise you get from him of great value. It will always be his true opinion. He has taught me to have respect for everything I do and everyone I meet through his own actions. As I have told you so many times Tom. Thank you for your guidance and patience, especially teaching me to play the guitar. Your ears must still be buzzing from those first few notes of mine! And that was some 40 years ago!! Hope to meet up with you soon.
