ABOUT ME
My name is Jim Braswell. I am a life-long resident of Missouri and my wife Karen and I currently reside in rural
Cass County, outside of Drexel, Missouri (the Show-Me State). I attended the University of Missouri-Kansas City, where
I obtained a B.S. in Biology. For 31+ years, I worked for a major pharmaceutical company. I retired on
February 01, 2007 and am now focusing on nature photography full-time.
Although I photograph scenics, my main interest is wildlife. Through my images, I strive to convey the complex
daily lives of the subjects I photograph. Whenever I photograph, it is always my intent to capture the actions and behaviors
of my subjects. Through this process, it is my objective to educate others about the wildlife that surrounds us, including
their behaviors, feeding habits, raising of young, etc.
I am a member of the Great Plains Nature Photographers (GPNP) and of the North American Nature Photographers Association
(NANPA).
