Wildlife photographer and workshop leader Tom Murphy’s work has appeared everywhere from National Geographic to Time Magazine, but one of his photographs is about to be printed on 15 million tiny pieces of art: a postage stamp.
Tom Murphy’s career as a wildlife photographer spans nearly fifty years. Much of that time was spent in what’s often referred to as America’s Serengeti: Yellowstone National Park. While only around eight percent of Yellowstone is visible from the road, the photographer estimates that he’s seen around 65 percent of the national park that is larger than the states of Delaware and Rhode Island combined. “I don’t think it’s an exaggeration to say that I’ve spent 5,000 days in Yellowstone in all seasons,” he said.
