Photography Workshop with Steve Gettle:
Birds of Prey Shoot
Photograph by Doug Locke
Building an Image
After lunch, we head into the field for our up close and personal experience with amazing photo opportunities with six birds of prey. Steve Gettle, Nicole Sudduth, Doug Locke and Mike Whear are on hand to answer photography questions and help out in the field. All of the wildlife models at the shoot are unable to be released back into the wild for one reason or another. When they are not modeling for our cameras, the birds travel to schools and outdoor events acting as ambassadors to educate the public about raptors.
