Today, I'll share with you a winter expedition into Norway’s Dovrefjell National Park, home to about 300 magnificent muskoxen. My journey took place in extreme Arctic conditions with temperatures around -25°C (-13°F). How did my cameras - the Nikon Z9, Z6 III, and ZR - hold up?

Most photographers edit their work with a mouse and keyboard while looking at a monitor. However, there are many devices that give a tactile feel to photo editing and drawing, such as pen tablets. Today, I'll review one such pen tablet: the Huion Kamvas 16 Gen 3, which retails for $459.

Although photography speaks a clear and easily understood language, it is utterly silent — a balm for the soul in today’s noise-saturated world. Still, there are moments when I wish I could turn up the volume on an imaginary dial. This rarely happens when I look at a photograph of a person, but quite often when the subject is a bird — just like the Choco Toucan in the image below. Its open bill and the way its entire body is positioned suggest that it is filling a stretch of cloudforest with sound, and yet you hear nothing. This week, I wrote an article about that situation. But right now, let’s give voice to the photography news that surfaced this week.

Black and white wildlife photography is a radical choice to strip the subject of its literal appearance and reveal its essence. In this article, I'll explore how eliminating color can allow us to go beyond merely chronicling the moment in front of us, and instead embrace what I call the "Archetype."

Photography is a remarkable medium. In high-resolution photos, we can study every patch of skin, fur, or feather on an animal. High-speed burst shooting can capture fleeting moments of animal behavior in fractions of a second. What photography cannot capture, however, is sound—that vital yet invisible component of both animal and human existence without which an image may be incomplete. Today, using the example of two magnificent species of toucans inhabiting the western slopes of the Andes, I want to give you a glimpse of where photography does not tell the whole story.

It's always a treat to see a good photo that employs a "visual echo" - when different parts of the photo call out to one another and make the whole composition feel interconnected. Not all scenes will have visual echoes that you can photograph, but they're sure worth searching for.
