AI generated Videos are getting crazy! With access to Google Gemini 's VEO2 engine I was able to create this 8 sec video that mirrors nearly 100 clips I have personally filmed in Africa of leopards. It did it in under a minute with a few simple prompts. What are your thoughts on AI generated video?

I love the challenge of photographing birds in flight. This is where your camera's AF system and high FPS (frames per second) come into play. Sony a1 w/ 200-600 f/5.6-6.3

A close-up look at the "Phantom of the North", the Great Grey Owl. Sony a1 II w/ 600mm f/4 + 1.4 TC plus Topaz Gigapixel for enlarging #sonyalpha

An incredible sunset over Torres del Paine in Southern Patagonia. Such a remarkable destination! While the weather here can be very unforgiving, it can also be rewarding when everything lines up! Sony a7R V w/ 16-35 f/2.8 GM II

The Eyelash Pit Viper (Bothriechis schlegelii) is an incredible species of snake found in parts of Central and South America. These smaller vipers are arboreal (live in trees) and are ambush predators. They get their name "Eyelash" because of the scales that can be found above their eyes. #herps

Keel-billed Toucans are both incredibly funny looking and insanely beautiful birds. They can be found in central and South America, but only Brazil has them listed as their national bird. Sony a1 w/400mm & 600mm GM lenses #SonyAmbassador #SonyAlpha #Birds #art #photography

Baby Chameleons are pretty dang adorable! Sony a1 w/ 90mm f/2.8 macro #Art #Photography #SonyAlpha

There is no greater wildlife experience on the planet than seeing wild Silverback Gorillas from the ground! No safari vehicles separating you...just you, the gorillas and the surrounding jungle! #Art #Photography

Pre-Dawn light appears over one of my favorite mountain ranges in the world, Torres del Paine in Southern Patagonia. Even after 20 trips to this region over the years, this view NEVER gets old! Have you been to Patagonia before?

Easily one of my favorite hidden gems in Australia is Karijini National Park. Located in Western Oz, it consists of a handful of amazing gorges, pools and waterfalls in the middle of the outback. Have you ever heard of it before?

When the light hits the walls of Antelope Canyon in Northern Arizona, it becomes a pretty magical place! Have you been be before?

My, what's beautiful teeth you have! A beautiful reflection of a Caiman found in the rivers around the Pantanal in Brazil. Pantanal, Brazil Sony a1 w/ 600mm f/4 GM #Art #Photogrsphy #Wildlife

A magical moment of a rainbow appearing behind an Eagle Hunter in Mongolia. Timing is everything when it comes to situations like this! Sony a7R IV w/ 100-400 f/4.5-5.6 GM #Art #Photography #Travel #SonyAlpha

One of the most impressive mammals on the planet is the Alaskan Coastal Brown Bear as they are one of the largest species of bear on the planet because of the abundance of food. During the summer months you can find them searching for salmon in the rivers. Sony a7R V w/200-600 #Art #Photography

This is one of my favorite vertical panoramas I have ever shot! It was taken in Southern Patagonia in the heart of Torres del Paine National Park with the Milky Way in the sky above. I shot it at 24mm and combined 5 horizontal images, stacked vertically. #art #photography #astro

One of the most challenging shoots I did last year was photograph a Red Splitting Cobra in Kenya. These incredible creatures spit their venom, requiring me to wear a full face shield. The second photo is a BTS shot of my lens covered in venom. Nature is cool! #Art #Photography #Herps #MacroWildlife

There is nothing quite like seeing an erupting volcano in person. These days, there is no better place than Iceland to have this kind of experience. While they often rope off the most dangerous areas around the volcano, a Drone can capture some pretty amazing footage! #Art #Photography #Drone

Just got back home after 25 days exploring the jungles of Madagascar. Ended up losing 10lbs on this trip, which was a nice surprise! Most expensive weight loss program EVER ;)

Some destinations just seem too good to be true! Places like Diamond Beach in the southern part of Iceland. Even after 40 trips to Iceland over the years, this spot never gets old. Every shot is different! Such a fun destination to experience! #Art #Photography #NaturePhotography

While every wildlife photographer knows the struggle of wild animals turning their back to them, I decided to take it to heart and make an artistic series of "wild butts" from around the world. Any guesses on who is up first? Sony a1 w/ 600mm f/4 GM #Art #Photography #NaturePhotography

Sometimes mother nature can just blow you away with how incredible it truly is! Auroras appear when solar flares launch off the sun towards our little planet and interact with our atmosphere. How amazing is that? Sony a7R V w/ 12-24 f/2.8 GM Lofoten Islands of Norway #Art #Photography #Astro

Easily one of the most beautiful snakes on the planet, the Blue Insularis, otherwise known as the White-Lipped Pit Viper, is only found on 3 remote islands in the world, all in Indonesia. Snakes are amazing creatures and deserve our respect! Sony a1 w/ 90mm f/2.8 Macro #Art #Photography #Herps

Have you ever wanted to see the Milky Way and sunrise at the same time? Bolivia has some of the darkest skies on the planet, allowing for a very small 15 minute window where you can capture both in a single image. Crazy right? Sony a1 w/ 14mm f/1.8 GM Salar de Uyuni #art #photography #astro

Easily one of the most famous frogs on the planet, this is the Red Eyed Green Tree Frog. Found in many locations around Costa Rica, this species isn't rare...but it is still amazing to see in person! Sony a1 w/ 90mm f/2.8 Macro #Art #Photography #WildlifePhotography #NaturePhotography #Herps

One of my favorite things about this platform is that every post isn't swarmed by the paid "blue checkmark army" of crypto-bros and crazy people that were forced to the top of every comment section. What a sh*t show that was...

How many stars can you count #bluesky community?Try one star at a time ;) This was taken below the Milky Way in the high altitude desert of Bolivia! Sony a1 w/ 14mm f/1.8GM #art #photography #astro #AstroPhotography

One of my favorite birds on the planet has to be the Puffin. While there are three types of Puffins found in different parts of the world, the Atlantic Puffin to me is the "classic" version. How cute are these guys? Sony a1 w/ 600mm f/5.6-6.3G #Birds #Art #Photography 🦅

Let's be honest! Baby Chameleons are pretty damn adorable! Baby Helmeted Chameleon found in Uganda. Sony a1 w/ 90mm f/2.8 Macro f/18 | 1/200th sec | ISO 200 #Art #Photography #Macro

A Jaguar grabbing a drink just after sunrise in the Pantanal region of Brazil. Sony a1 w/ 600mm f/4 GM f/5.6 | 1/1600th | ISO 1000 #Art #Photography #SonyAlpha

Excited to be here and avoid the toxicity of Elons Minions. Looking to connect with my fellow artists and photographers! This is a photo of a passing lightning storm over the Salar de Uyuni in Bolivia back in March of this year. Hope you enjoy! #art #photography
