    Default HI Everyone!

    Hi Everyone. My name is Randy and I’ve been a lifelong outdoor and wildlife enthusiast. On a recent trip to Taiwan, I found a small group of serious photographers shooting a Taiwan Barbet in the middle of Taipei. An afternoon with them inspired me to try my hand at wildlife photography, so I started off earlier this year with a handheld Canon 7D and a Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L lens. I have no previous experience or training, so I’m eager to learn and improve. I’ve seen such remarkable pictures on this site, I know it’s going to be a great source if inspiration and knowledge. Thanks!


    I currently live in Valencia California (near Los Angeles). You can view some of my shots on my Wild Neighbors page: https://www.facebook.com/WildNeighbors
