My background in natural sciences has given me a deep appreciation of out door landscapes. I am fortunate to have the opportunity to capture some of the beautiful places in this world.
Big city folks in the northeast should learn to enjoy the snow they've gotten this year. At least in places like Northern Michigan there are winter sports. Case in point, the Vasa Ski Race held every February in Traverse City, Michigan. Th is year was perfect, except for those who do not like fresh snow and temperatures in the 20's. Here are some of the photos from the race.
For something different I attended the 2008 Vasa Ski Race on February 9th in order to photograph action. These images are not for sale, but if there are racers who recognize themselves and would like a digital copy, please feel free to e-mail me at thaxby02@yahoo.com
