music by Jim Eaglesmith.
 Mark Vollmer and Jim Eaglesmith
Mark Vollmer is an award-winning outdoor photographer whose imagery
is very evocative. He has a real knack for getting great shots of wildlife, storms, wild
lighting and sunsets. The spirit of the land shows through in his photos. This year,
Mark is the cover photographer for Friends’ Wild Nevada calendar.

in his life and for singing from his heart.
