Among his favorite subjects are ducks and duck dogs along with the wildlife and wild places of south Georgia and north Florida. His work as a botanist in wildlife habitat restoration and invasive plant management has provided an abundance of opportunities to capture God’s glory on many beautiful properties. Unique landscape images of longleaf pine and wiregrass and many native wildflowers and endangered plants are among his favorite photographic targets. Mark feels truly blessed by the natural beauty and wonders God has shown him and allowed him to capture and he hopes that His glory will touch you through his photographs.
