Featured Photographer: Mike Palmer
If you’ve taken the time to read any of the wonderful comments on this site, you may see a name pop up pretty often: the name of Mike Palmer. Since I’ve started this blog, Mike has been an incredible resource for me as I learn… and, he’s a pretty awesome photographer, too! So, I thought I’d feature his work, mostly because it’s just plain great, and because he’s been a huge influence to me in the short time we’ve been corresponding. Thanks Mike!
Here’s a short bio/description of Mike from an interview he did with Jason Moore:
“I am currently a full-time, stay-at-home dad, part-time opportunist photographer. My wife’s job has had us moving from DC, to North Miami Beach, to West Palm Beach, to Orlando, and now back to DC in the past 4 years, and we are probably looking to relocate in the next year or so again. So with that said, I am going to pursue my passion for photography when time permits and if it pays, BONUS! Bloomingdale’s most currently purchased some of my images to hang in their FL stores. When the full-time dad gig starts to offer me more opportunities to shoot for a living, I will get a business started more consistently.” (link)
Mike’s been into photography for about 20 years and he shoots with a Nikon D200 and D70. And, like me, he is a big fan of HDR images. I’ve included some of my favorite photos from his Flickr stream below:

Thanks again, Mike, for taking the time to help out a new photographer like myself… It is truly appreciated!
