(LE MARS)– We’re kicking off a new photography feature here on KLEM. With an abundance of talented amature and professional photographers in our area, we thought it would be fun to tell their story and feature some of their work on klem1410.com.
David Moore is a music teacher in Marcus who is also a nature enthusiast that takes great pictures.
Moore said that growing up his family was always taking pictures for the family photo album, and it eventually rubbed off on him.

He got his first digital camera in 2002, and that’s when the fun really began.

And experiment he does. He likes being outdoors, so many of his pictures feature landscapes and nature. He said that he very much enjoys taking pictures when he travels to places like the Rocky Mountains, but since life doesn’t allow for a lot of travel time, he finds plenty to shoot near home.

He also likes to take pictures from different perspectives.

That perspective can be seen on the photos displayed here.
Moore says that he doesn’t take pictures for competitions, he takes them for himself. He did, however, enter a photo of a full moon beaming over an Iowa cornfield at the Plymouth County Fair last year. It earned him a blue ribbon. (News report by Angela Drake of KLEM.
