I am thrilled to share that three of my photographs have been selected for the 2027 Broomfield Nature Lovers Calendar! This initiative supports the vital fundraising efforts of the Broomfield Open Space Foundation. This year my work is featured on the cover, as well as September and December along with over a dozen birds and bee photos found in our open spaces from photographers in our community .
