The Photography of Dr. Jeff Harper

Just a few minutes and a good lens is all you need for a good day.

I may go back and shoot this one with a tripod . . . . some additional depth of field could improve the feeling.

So fresh and sweet.

An intriguing tiny world.

A happy photographer.

Remembering my brother, Allen Scott Harper. R.I.P.

Every February I, and another three faculty members from the Internatonal School Bangkok, organize a community service project during a Global Citizens Week.  This year we took 34 high school students to Baan Rachawadee School to restore and paint school rooms and facilities.

We buy high quality materials and spend the time and effort to pepare the suraces to insure a "15-year paint job."

There is a canal (khlong) behind my house that has its own ecosystem. 

The other morning I spotted a large, 1.5 meter, Monitor lizard sunning itself on my garden wall . . . and happened to have my trusty Canon 5D Mark II camera and the great Canon L-series II 70-200mm lens on it.  What luck!

Wildlife photography from my loving room!

What a great opportunity to finally photograph this Monitor lizard I have been stalking for several years.  I ran up stairs and added the 2X extender onto my long lens and ran back downstairs for a closer shot . . . but it (he? she?) was gone.  Darn!  I'll keep my camra gear in the living room from now on . . . I might also get a chance to photograph the 2.5 meter long Python that also lives in the khlong that likes to eat the local cats.
