 * Delete lacks secondary sources showing notability.John Pack Lambert (talk) 20:58, 16 July 2015 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep Shaw's notability is probably best evidenced by his publications, there's a review, an interview , a review of one of his videos , a review here , and there'd be a ton more in dead tree archives of Outdoor Photographer, Popular Photography, etc. These meet GNG and AUTHOR, and the NANPA award is pretty much the highest honor from the largest nature photography organization in the world, perhaps qualifying him under ANYBIO as well. I would agree with the nominator about one thing, the Microsoft thing is not convincing.  --j⚛e deckertalk 17:17, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
