Thank you to all the photographers that shared their best photos showing animals or birds within a beautiful landscape in the Creative Critterscapes Photo Contest in collaboration with our friends at Aperture Academy.
A special thanks to friend and professional photographer Brian Rueb for his collaboration as a guest judge in this photo contest. Brian has been photographing for the better part of 25 years. Combining a degree in photography and a degree in art he has worked the two together to create powerful and dynamic landscape images. His love and passion for photography is evident in each and every image he shoots. In addition to his passion for art Brian also has a passion for education and has spent almost 20 years teaching art and photography in the public high school system. During that time he has developed an art and photography program that has seen numerous students win awards and go on to major in the profession. His goal is not only to be great himself, but to instill that knowledge and passion into his students.
