This showcases drone photography, which is very much part of my workflow now.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">The skill level required was greater when I was starting out 50 years ago without autofocus and limited film in the camera. But you still need skill when using a drone.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Putting a drone up doesn&#8217;t guarantee a good photo. The camera is how you see a photo in your head. The background, the light, the composition; all need to be as close to perfect as possible.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">This picture at Royal Dornoch, in the north of Scotland, was taken at sunrise. I live in the town and it&#8217;s a great place to head back to after the bustle of a major.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">It&#8217;s difficult to pick a favourite photo out of the hundreds of thousands I&#8217;ve taken.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">As one of the few remaining independent golf photographers, I&#8217;ve built one of the most comprehensive private collections in the sport.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">It&#8217;s hard to beat that first major and taking that photo of Seve winning but then I captured Rory&#8217;s emotions at Augusta towards the end of my career and it has been an utter joy and privilege to photograph every one of Tiger&#8217;s 15 major wins in the middle.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">This week, as I cover my 151st major championship &#8211; in addition to every Ryder Cup since 1985 &#8211; I am honoured to be receiving the PGA of America Lifetime Achievement Award in Photojournalism.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">While there are days that are long and stressful, I love what I do. I&#8217;ll know when to step away &#8211; but that isn&#8217;t now.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script data-jetpack-boost=\"ignore\" async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-1669381584671856\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- Africa tv video display -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1669381584671856\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"3579572842\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script data-jetpack-boost=\"ignore\">\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n#Golfs #iconic #images #Tiger #Woods #Rory #McIlroy #Seve #Ballesteros<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I wanted to include one final image of a golf course close to my heart.
