Gerry’s the best!

I listen to Gerry in my helmet headset while guiding ATV tours in Alaska and while I’m driving to different locations while doing my own wildlife photography. Gerry’s the best! He’s taught me so much about how to improve my own work and how to think about life and the world! Thanks Gerry!
