The name, as you may have either known already or guessed by the link, is Brian. I live in San Antonio, Texas and work at Natural Bridge Caverns. At the Caverns, I'm the Cavern Geologist, Operations Manager, IT Director, Climbing Tower Manager, Adventure Tour Director, part of the marketing team, and trainer for the guides. Whew. It's a fun job. My interests include caving (duh), backpacking, hiking, cycling, and photography (another "duh"). As far as photography goes, I'm mainly intersted in caves and in landscapes. I really prefer black-and-white, and by that I mean the old school photography with film, paper, chemicals and orange/red lights. But digital photography is getting better in quality, and it is easier to deal with the images. All images contained herein may not be reused without the permission of the photographer. You may purchase many of the images you see on this site as prints or as other gifts. This site is provided through <A LINK HREF="http://www.smugmug.com/?referrer=6cRTiSsctsdTR">smugmug</A>, and I think it's a great site. If you want a place to post your pics, try them out.
