User:Westtexasnature

I have had a long term interest in observing, understanding and photographing many aspects of nature in the region of West Texas and particularly the Texas high Plains in both current and historical contexts.

I grew up in Amarillo, Texas, graduated from Texas Tech University in Lubbock, Texas with a BA in Mass Communications and a BS in Political Science. During one of my former jobs as an inspector for the Texas Department of Agriculture during the early 1980's my territory covered all 26 counties of the Texas Panhandle. My passion for nature, wildlife, landscape and tourism photography has enabled me to become very familiar with portions of five states within a 600 mile radius of Amarillo.

I am currently involved with a local nature center with the goal of helping others to gain a better understanding of the natural and historical aspects of my region in which I live and work.
