Artist Statement

The reason why I love taking photographs is because photos can freeze time. Photos are the closes things we have to an actual time machine. By looking at a photo we can take a glimpse of the past. Photos can take us all the way back to the civil war. They can make us remember how cute our children were or funny story at a party. Photos tell a story no matter how simple it is. I take photos to tell a story to other people.

I had the lucky opportunity on my last trip to the Minnesota Zoo to photograph one of their tigers.  Typically when I visit the tigers are no where to be seen, likely taking a nap in a hidden corner.  However today the tiger decided to give me a show and continues to walk behind trees, finally giving me this great shot of him coming down the hill, with tail curling as he steps forward.

I was given even more luck as he then continues to roar, giving me some great shots of his teeth. I have had great success each time I visit the zoo to get some amazing photos, this one was a time of tigers as I got some great shots of this one doing his own thing as he goes about his day.
