Many of us tend to take stock of your year in terms of your photographic journey...
Here is mine for 2015, imperfect hindsight as I like to call it:

Did you post yours on your blog or elsewhere?
Post a link here, I'd like to see them!

Have a super 2016, folks...

Hey Trevor I really enjoyed your seal pics... Sorry Morkel a bit off topic so I will be brief.. I just don't recall anyone's images that so made me feel like I was getting to know an animal..in this case seals....

It just makes me want to spend a month hanging out with them... Most of us really don't know them do we???

Morkel just clicked on your link...WOW!!! such beautiful work.........That last one, the Giraffe, is so surreal...are you selling that a lot ???  Well I have always loved your vision you know and over the last whatever it has been I've seen you grow tremendously...


Myself,since you asked, I've been away from the camera for a couple of years...life just seems to get in the way like that...but I am definitely going to come roaring back very soon....Good luck to you this year and I hope your able to keep going with your unique way of looking at things and sharing that with us.....

An aside....don't get to hellbent staying away from longer focal lengths although I completely see what your trying to do...instead maybe do some stitching with the longer focal length jobs to include environment....there is just no way in many situations to get that "look" as one gets with a 5-600.....  Just sayin.... :wink:

If one is environmentally sensitive, Trevor has  some great stuff. With Trevor it's not about necessarily pretty pictures, it's about beautiful nature... To  my eye that is so profound and sublime.....


Morkel...what can I say that I haven't already...your images capture me....and take me to places unfortunately I may never see.............darn it....
