We contacted the photographer in order to find out more about his work. Joe was kind enough to share with us how he first got inspired to pursue wildlife photography as a career: “From a young age, I developed a fascination with nature through programs on the Discovery channel. My family supported this interest by gifting me subscriptions to publications like National Geographic. Spending time camping and exploring the woods further fueled my passion for the natural world. Although I once believed becoming a wildlife photographer was out of reach, purchasing an entry-level camera for hikes eventually transformed my fascination into a hobby and later, a fulfilling side business.” More info: Instagram | jmneelyphotography.com | Facebook Follow Bored Panda on Google News!
