Hey, heads up.

You may find a few affiliate links to outside websites if I reference specific products I use within my articles. If you click through these links and end up purchasing a product, I may receive a small return that helps me fund my excursions, photography and travel. I also sell prints and wall art of my landscape photography here. Half of all proceeds are donated to conservation charities.
