Greetings Nature Enthusiasts,

Welcome to my first column here on the Corkboard at Natural Exposures. I’m writing to you from the shores of Hudson Bay near Churchill, Manitoba. It’s hard to believe but I’m sitting in the comforts of a Tundra Buggy, running a streaming video feed for Polar Bears International, which is being broadcast across the Internet via the National Geographic web site.

Churchill doesn’t even have cellular service but they do have cable and it’s the cable line that we’re tied in to by way of a wireless Internet connection from our buggy to the cable station in town. I’m presently assisting a four-time Emmy award winning cinematographer Mr. Daniel Zatz of See More Wildlife and WildlifeHD.
