Daryl L. Hunter - The
Hole Picture's photostream
|


When I was a wander lusting young man I would often find myself in beautiful places, so I bought a camera so I could document my wanderlust. 1n 1987 I packed up my Toyo 4X5 view camera, Pentex 6X7 medium format camera, and my 35-millimeter cameras and headed to Jackson Hole Wyoming, one of the best places on earth to be an outdoor photographer.
Jackson Hole is full of active lifestyle types, fly-fishing, hunting, whitewater sports, horseback riding, etc. I became a freelance guide as well, fly-fishing, snowmobile, park tour guiding, and horseback wrangling my way to beautiful pictures all over the area and throughout the spectrum of activities in the area. Jackson Hole abuts Yellowstone National Park and Grand Teton National Park an embarrassment of riches for wildlife and scenic photography.
My freelance photography bifurcated to include graphic design work, which opened the door to web publishing requiring that I learned to write. I publish The Greater Yellowstone Resource Guide.
My photographs have been published by National Geographic, Outside Magazine, Snow Country, Outdoor life, Esquire Sports, West Coast Board Sailor, Mother Jones, Warren Miller Productions, U.S.A. Today, San Francisco Magazine, Fly-fisherman,International Wolf, Beet a Belgian fishing magazine and Fit For Fun a German sports Magazine.
I am proficient with small, medium, large format photography. As a stock photographer my photos have been used in hundreds of brochures, rack cards, newspapers, and websites promoting the Greater Yellowstone area and beyond. Today I shoot exclusively with my Canon EOS D5 Mark ll, its 21-megapixel censor can produce Tiff files of 60 megabytes, a size that can reproduce very large prints, or provide the opportunity for cropping tight and still having plenty of resolution to work with.
I have been working with Photoshop extensively since 1995 and am proficient with photo manipulation and montage. Today my photo management system is Aperture by Apple; it is superb at color correction with the added benefit of photo database management.
Education: Independent study of photography and digital design:
Photography has more pay offs than monetary. It drives us to search out pretty places or to dissect our surroundings to find it where we are. It makes us seek out beautiful things even in adverse conditions. Wherever we go we are looking for a beautiful rectangle we can isolate out of the chaos of life, when you are always seeking beauty, you will find more than your share - that is rich.
Some may be interested on reading a couple of articles I have written about photography twenty years ago. Living A Richer Life Without Any Money explains how I feel about what photography brings into our lives as photographers and Search For Serendipity pokes fun at the serendipity we depend on to produce great photos.

RH Miller says:
"Daryl is a wonderful wildlife and nature photographer. I'm privileged to shoot in some of the same neighborhoods as Daryl and his uncanny knack for finding the animals and scenes amazes me . If I were visiting Jackson Hole or Yellowstone National Park and wanted to find all the good stuff, I would definitely go with a pro and have Daryl take me. Thanks for being such a good Flickr Bud, Daryl.

BUCKS WILDLIFE PHOTOGRAPHY says:
"Daryl photographs an area that I still call home and that is dear to my heart, even though I now live in Alaska, a place that is close to Daryl's heart.
Daryl captures images of a lifestyle that I once knew and lived. It is always a pleasure to be able to look at his images and recall how sweet life once was. Daryl's images makes me want to do it all over again. He brings out the luster and beauty of the land that I love.
Through Daryl's images one can see the beauty of a way of life that few ever get to live. Thank God that Daryl and I are living it. Keep those images coming my friend.

Jeff Clow says:
"I've had the distinct pleasure to meet and shoot with Daryl in his backyard - Jackson Hole, Wyoming. As you can tell by one look through his photostream, he is a really talented shooter. But what you won't know until you meet him is what a great human being he is .... upbeat, generous, fun loving, inspirational and a great story teller with or without a photo to illustrate the story.
I met Daryl through the magic of Flickr and now consider him a friend .... and it is people like Daryl that make Flickr such a special place. If you ever visit the Tetons, be sure to arrange to meet him. He is a good man."29th September, 2009
