Welcome

To my site
which combines Word Craft, Bay-to-Beach Life blog, and adds Nature Focus

Let me introduce myself. I’m Christina Parsons (Chris to family, friends and colleagues). I’m a nature writer and conservation educator, and have been since the film Jaws was released and I saw the impact on sportfishers with their shark catches. More recently I’ve rounded out Word Craft storytelling with Nature Focus photography. Through prose and photos, I’ll be sharing my wonder of nature and wildlife — it’s all so amazing! I’ll also convey my concerns about human nature and the need to connect people to care for the natural world around us.

To learn about my writing and photography,
visit the Bay Blog posts or Word Craft and Nature Focus pages.

Nature Focus

Nature Focus captures photos of wildlife nearby to show a view of where and how animals live and their relationships with what lives around them. The intent is to help people relate and make connections that will build caring relationships with nature. As a photographer I practice care and do my utmost not to disturb or tread on nature for a good shot. No photo is worth harming the natural environment or precious wildlife. For information about ethical nature photography practices in the field, review the North American Nature Photography’s Principles.

To view more photos, visit Nature Focus Portfolios. If you see something you’d like a copy of,
let me know through the Contact form. I plan to open a Shop next year.
