		<title>A Tale of Two Volcanoes</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The question hadn&#8217;t occurred to me until I stood there watching molten rock from the volcano Kilauea, in Hawaii, flowing into the ocean. Lava, on occasion, explodes when it&#8217;s rapidly cooled by sea water sending tracers flying. But what makes magma (molten rock below the earth&#8217;s crust) flow out of shield volcanoes like Kilauea in [...]]]></description>

		<title>An Experience To Remember</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The smell of rotting fish tends to grab your attention&#8230; so does fresh bear poop. I also notice, in some places, the thick vegetation along the stream I&#8217;m exploring in Western Alaska lies flat where a bear had been sitting. The spruce forest closes in behind me as I round several bends and my senses [...]]]></description>

		<title>Just One Step Ahead</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Little birds seldom stay in one place for long. They&#8217;re energetic, they flit, forage, hop, hover, and yes, they fly. It&#8217;s a challenge to get a small bird, say a hummingbird or a chickadee, to stay in front of the camera long enough to focus and click. A telephoto lens helps to give a detailed [...]]]></description>

		<title>If You Build It&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A great thing about bird watching is you can do it just about anywhere you go. It&#8217;s their diverse survival strategies and highly mobile nature that make birds so successful at exploiting almost every habitat niche this world has to offer. Understanding these traits and a few specifics about the avian species in your area [...]]]></description>

		<title>Sometimes It&#8217;s Easy, Sometimes Not</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;F/11 and be there!&#8221; That&#8217;s an old photography expression to describe a subject so interesting or dramatic that merely recording the scene is enough to capture the interest of your audience. Nature offers intrinsic beauty and making nice pictures is often as simple as showing up when the light is good. But nature can be [...]]]></description>

		<title>Seeing Through the Camera</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It had been a quiet morning on British Columbia&#8217;s Blackfish Sound. I hadn&#8217;t seen a killer whale in two days, still the meter on my hired boat was running. Sometimes that&#8217;s the way it goes with nature photography. I decided to cut my losses and head to port hoping for better luck in the evening. [...]]]></description>

		<title>What Makes a Photographer?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In our digital age, anyone can become a publishing photographer by posting snapshots on the Internet. So what’s the difference between a photographer and someone who simply notices, “Wow, this phone takes pictures, too?” The answer may lie in your degree of obsession and ability to edit. Do you take four pictures at a birthday [...]]]></description>
