My Camera Bag




Ultimate Nature came about because of the encouragement of David Deratzian's wife, Allison.  David is a wildlife and scenic photographer, who worked with medium, large and 35mm film formats, before settling on 35mm and digital.  At present, David shoots using the Canon EOS system exclusively, with the exception of underwater film work.  Most recently, David has embraced digital as his most expressive medium.
