Dre's photography is simply amazing. I can't look at his work without feeling inspired by his work and his passion for what he does and for his insights into people, life and nature. If you haven't yet had a chance to explore his page and work, I think you need to take a few minutes to check him out.

This young man's work is beyond stunning!!! There are lots of folks out there posting pictures on Facebook, but this young man's work is head and shoulders above them all, in my opinion!!! His work on the Northern Lights makes you feel like you're right there!!!

When you look through a camera lens, you block out the rest of the world, including misery, agony, and grief. It's just you and what you're seeing right now. Practice focusing on taking the perfect shot, and you'll find that even without the camera in front of your face, you'll be seeing the good in life a lot more clearly."
