About the Artist
We are Leigh Scott and Mark Cohen, a married couple who created Focal Pointers as a joint venture. We are avid outdoor adventurers who enjoy landscape and wildlife photography. Since meeting in 2012, we have taken photos in a wide variety of interesting locations around the world. Our Canon cameras and lenses are an essential part of our outdoor gear, just as important as sturdy boots and a pair of trekking poles. Our willingness to hike for considerable distances provides the opportunity for us to capture photos of places that most casual travelers would never see. As backcountry explorers, we are able to get wide-angle views of majestic, snow-capped peaks, bordered by aquamarine lakes; delicate petals of colorful wildflowers, lining the edge of the trail as it winds beneath a verdant forest canopy; and misty mountaintops outlined by the sun’s rays following an afternoon thunderstorm.
