Welcome to nature has no boss the photography and thought blog of Michael Bizeau and Christine Schultheis.

We are inspired by nature and that which happens of its own accord and view “nature” not as a thing or a place but as a process we are all a part of. We hope you enjoy the images we present here and you can take some time to look around and become inspired by the wonderful planet we live on.

    1. Hi, I have yet to photograph Yosemite. I have been to Tofino/Ucluelet and thought it was equal to anything as far as a true natural place. Iyour work is wonderful and represents your environment in it’s true form. Thanks for the kind words and posting your work.

  2. I really like the photos you’re posting here, and the words to go with them. I always think it puts the scene in context to know how and when the photo was taken. You seem to capture so many of the spontaneous and unexpected elements of nature – great work!
    Thanks for visiting and liking my blog 🙂

  3. Good morning, Michael,
    I too enjoy seeing your photos.Thank you. 🙂
    You are welcome to take a look at mine as well, at http://terrasseaudrey.wordpress.com

    There is one little negative comment I need to make, though. In your “about” section you have a common spelling error: “that which happens of it’s own accord” This must be, “that which happens of its own accord” with no apostrophe in “its.” “It’s” means “it is” or “it has” and I’m sure that’s not what you mean. I just thought you’d like to change that.
    Respectfully,
    aj

    1. David, thanks alot. You have great shots on your blog. I can relate to the difficulty of getting a great bluebird shot. We have spent whole mornings chasing them around the mountain meadows but with meager results. Thanks again.

    1. Thanks Andrea, Pinholes have a special place in my photography. Thanks for posting your paintings and I envy your stay in Iceland we only spent a short time there between our recent time in Greenland.

      Thanks for taking a peek at the photos.

    1. Thanks Hayden, I am with you on the sometimes misuse of HDR photography, when taken to the extreme it appears unnatural and not even pleasing to look at at least in my opinion. Maybe it is just like most new technologies and will take time for us to get a grip on how and when to use it.

    1. Nikki, thanks for checking my out as well. I enjoyed your story and photos about hiking to the beaches in PNW. I only get out that way once in a blue moon and it brought back good memories. Cheers.

    1. Thanks COlin, you have great photos on your site and at first glance are inspired by much of the same things that drive me to take photographs. I look forward to reading your posts and seeing your photographs as you continue on explorations.

  6. Hi Mike:

    Thanks for stopping by my blog On The Wing. Like you I divide my time between teaching (middle school, not university) and exploring the natural world. I love the diversity of your photography, both of subjects and styles. The pinhole images are especially unique and interesting. I was also struck by “The Mallard” photo. I couldn’t have said it better myself…there are so many of them, but none are “common.” Looking at a familiar thing in a whole new way is always an amazing experience – great job in capturing that idea.

    Keep up the good work!

    1. Pat, thanks for taking the time to write such a thoughtful comment. Your job teaching middle school has got to be much tougher than any I can think of. I do enjoy all types of photography and the pinhole images are something I am also fond of. Your passion for nature is evident in your blog and also very inspiring. Thanks again and have a great holiday season.
