Description
A Common Loon (Gavia immer) in non-breeding plumage patiently waits for the last drop of water to fall from its wing tip on the serene waters of Lake Yellowstone, Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming. It was slowly drifting in a circle for the whole time I observed it.

Gary Holmes, photographer: I have always loved to photograph nature, landscapes, abstract, and other found objects of interest. Although I have staged single and group portraits and still life photographs, I prefer the challenge of trying to capture the unpredictable spontaneity of things and events as they are occurring. I started with a Kodak Brownie as a child, but entered the world of real photography with a Canon AE-1 in the late 1970's. I have continued to develop my compositional and post-processing skills and have slowly acquired higher quality equipment that is now capable of putting those skills to their best use. I finally became confident enough to begin posting my work online in September 2012, and have successfully sold a number of my photographs on Fine Art America.
