The invited speaker will be Moose Peterson. He will give both a morning and afternoon presentation. The morning presentation is titled The Art of Bird Photography, and the second, Critter Stories, will be after lunch. Mooses passion for photography turned into a business in 1981. Along with his wife Sharon, they have dedicated their lives to the education and protection of our wild heritage through his photography.
Over the years Moose has been honored for his photographic passion. He is a Nikon Ambassador USA, recipient of the John Muir Conservation Award, Research Associate with the Endangered Species Recovery Program, just to name a few. He was part of Epson's "Finish Strong" ad campaign. Moose shares his knowledge through his writing and has been published in over 143 magazines worldwide and is the author of 29 books, including his the best seller on wildlife photography, "Captured".
One of the original Nikon shooters to receive the D1 in 1999, Moose embraced digital photography early and became the only wildlife photographer in the world to shoot strictly digital in the early years.
