Dave Edens picked up the camera with the intention of actually learning the craft in early 2011. He stuck with it and a progression can be seen over the last few years toward a bit more skill and understanding of the art. It is still very much a journey of exploration and learning, something he enjoys each time he looks through the results of the latest batch of images.
Dave participates in two local photography groups. The fun and informal North Alabama Photographers Guild, which holds monthly meetings and various get togethers as events or ideas spark an outing. He is also a member of the Huntsville Photographic Society which is a more formalized group which holds monthly meetings and competitions. Both groups have helped quite a bit in advancing his knowledge and improving his eye.
Dave and his partner moved to Monteagle, TN in December 2022 and he is looking forward to exploring the Cumberland Plateau with cameras in the coming years.
