Michael Kipp
Artist
United States
Originally from Cleveland, Ohio, I am a retired USAF Medic with over 22 years active duty and over 30 years as a Nationally Registered EMT, currently living in Melbourne, Florida and working fulltime in my second career as a Cardiology Technician at a local VA clinic.

My hobbies include comic book & fantasy art drawing, Guitar, scrapbooking, PS3 and computer gaming, and of course photography!

My primary photographic interests are in nature photography with some sports and travel shots when the opportunity presents itself.

My main nature interests are birds (raptors primarily) and big cats, including my three house cats whom I don't have the heart to tell they really aren't BIG cats!

I prefer wildlife, and often shoot in a protected wetland area very close to my house, but I also take advantage of several nature parks and local zoos thoughout central and south Florida to practice my photographic techniques in a more controlled environment.

Current Residence: Melbourne, Florida
Favourite genre of music: Country,Blues & Southern Rock, Blue Grass, Classic Rock
Favourite photographer: John Shaw
Favourite cartoon character: Calvin & Hobbes
Personal Quote: If it wasn't for the bad times, we wouldnt' know when we were having a good one!
Interests
I have returned!  I have been away from deviantart and even photography for awhile now due to some family business.  I would like to thank all my fellow deviant artsters and friends who have visited my site recently, while I have been away.  Your continued feedback and evalautions of my images is very helpful and much appreciated.  I need to apologize to all who have recently visited my gallery during my absence, left comments or added me to their watch lists.  I would normally respond to each of you individually to thank you for your support, but unfortunately I will not have the time to get back to all 200+ messages.  I am back now and should be able to keep up with message activity in a more timely manner from this point on.  

I even returned to the wetlands this morning.  The heat of August tends to keep the crowds down in the wetlands and I can usually walk through and find some undisturbed gems of nature.  I will be loading a few new images from my wetlands walk this morning to my feature gallery.  I hope to start getting more images soon.  In the mean time, please look through my gallery and check out some of my favorite images from Yellowstone, Grand Tetons, Red Rock Lakes Refuge, Airshows and zoo images and even a few shots of my house cats!
