Member’s Gallery – (In Person) Bearly | Snowy | Moose | Lightning with Tammy Tideswell

Grizzly bears, snowy owls, moose, and lightning appear worlds apart at first glance. However, each subject represents a deliberate step in an artistic journey to develop new and distinctively different photographic skills. This presentation takes you from the remote wilderness of Khutzeymateen, Canada, and Lake Clark National Park and Preserve, Alaska — where logistical hurdles were as challenging as the grizzly bears themselves — to the sub-zero temperatures of Wolfe Island, Canada, to capture the high-speed action of snowy owls in flight. Following the owls, we track moose in the rut through the deep and dramatic snow of Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming. Finally, we move from the wilderness to the sky, as we chase lightning and storms across five states in the western United States. Please join me for a photographic journey on the wild side.
