This Mallard mom is starting her own duck dynasty at Page Springs and made it to the Table of Contents page in the latest Arizona Highways.  I'm always psyched to have my pics appear in Arizona Highways and super happy that this sale will help chip away at the cost of owning the 10-pound 1-ounce Baby Jesus (AKA Nikkor 800mm).  BJ is one seriously fun and challenging lens to shoot with and it should be at over 22 bucks per millimeter.  Go BJ!

Spring is just around the corner here in Arizona and the Mallard drakes are already battling amongst each other to win over the females.  It won't be long until this mom has another passel of chicks to rear.

For those wondering where I've been the last many months, I've been writing about photo gear and technique for the Photography Life website.  You can check it out here.   Search around and find why this shot of DKish has great significance.

Cheers,
