This stunning Golden Eagle was flying low over a Colorado Rocky Mountain hillside when I took this photo. Golden eagles appear very dark when seen from a distance. However, the snow and my angle to the eagle captured the amazing color of this powerful raptor.

I am a nature and wildlife photographer living in Gunnison, Colorado. I was introduced to photography in my youth. Inspired and guided by Divine, today, I am a professional photographer. I love to capture an image of a mighty eagle swooping a fish from the waters or photograph a majestic elk moving gracefully across a high alpine meadow. I hope that my images will eliminate hunting and inspire more animal and habitat protection in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado. I wish to protect the wildlife rich environment of Gunnison County, Colorado, which is over 80% public land and make it another National Treasure for wildlife and their habitat, Blue Mesa National Park.
