In Wild Focus, Earl Nottingham, chief photographer for the Texas Parks & Wildlife Department and its magazine, provides a unique perspective on Texas featuring images of the woods, waters, and wildlife of the Lone Star landscape. Nottinghams engaging photography--landscape, nature, and wildlife; environmental portraiture of people; photojournalistic coverage of events, including natural disasters--provides a cohesive overview of biodiversity and the state of conservation in Texas.
The nearly 200 stunning photographs collected here encompass the expansive mission of TPWD, presenting traditional landscape images from state and national parks as well as from vast private lands. Cultural and historic sites are included along with environmental portraits of the people associated with those sites. From the states wildlife, both great and small, to nature shown in not only its beauty but also its fury--wildfires, hurricanes, and floods--Earl Nottingham offers a visual compendium of events, people, places, and things that have shaped the face of natural Texas.
The author logged untold miles and wore through many sets of tires to offer timely stories that would inform, educate, entertain, and empower readers about the outdoors. These images that capture the richness and diversity of wild Texas inspire a greater appreciation for the states beauty and promote a sense of stewardship for its natural treasures.

ForewordOver the years, people have often asked me what I loved most about working at Texas Parks and Wildlife Department or what was my favorite state park or wildlife management area. Though I have thought about these questions many times, I always remind myself that what I loved the most was and still are the incredible diversity of natural and cultural resources in the care of the department and the wonderful family of professionals who are their stewards.On these pages, my colleague Earl Nottingham absolutely illuminates both passions. Here the reader is in for an amazing cornucopia of images depicting some of the most beautiful places in America by one of its most skilled photographers. It is no mystery that there is very little turnover at Texas Parks and Wildlife because we all love and loved working there so much. Earls photographs show that love as well, through a focused lens.Throughout the departments history, illustration of wildlife, historic sites, and wild lands has been fundamental to its mission through painting, photography, words, and video by some of the most talented people I have had the honor of working alongside. Earl Nottingham is surely one of those. His photographic skills are only matched by his kindness and good humor.Along with me, another person who understands and appreciates Earl and his colleagues and the resources they manage is former Texas Parks and Wildlife Commission chairman Edwin L. Cox Jr. He and his wife, Kathy, have made this series of books on conservation leadership possible.I know Ed agrees with me that we are proud to include Earls work in this distinguished array as it is reflective of the incredible beauty of our state and a prime example of the finest group of conservation professionals in America.ANDREW SANSOMGeneral Editor, Kathie and Ed Cox Jr. Books on Conservation Leadership
AcknowledgmentsIts not an easy task, poring through thousands of photographic images taken over a twenty-five-year span to select roughly two hundred images that best illustrate the breadth of subject matter that comes with putting a face to the multifaceted mission of the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD).
