Darrell is author of the Mastering the Nikon® DSLR series books, published by NikoniansPress and Rocky Nook, Inc.

He is a professional photographer and writer living within a few miles of the Appalachian and Blue Ridge Mountains. He makes a living from his stock photography and photo books and loves talking about photography to anyone that will listen. He has a real concern for this earth and the people on it. It shows in his pictures! Darrell spends an inordinate amount of time in the mountains of Tennessee and North Carolina, USA, seeking the ultimate photograph, but hasn't found it yet!

Here are a few of Darrell's web and social media sites: Facebook, Google+, Nikon Digital Camera and Photo Enhusiasts (NDCPE), Mastering Your Nikon® Camera, Appalachian Stock Photography Agency, The Nikon Companion camera blog, and PlanetNikon forum.
