Los Glaciares – Images by Art Wolfe
I met my group at El Chalten and we had an excellent few days photographing in Argentina’s Los Glaciares National Park. A highlight was shooting Cerro Torre and Fitz Roy from a helicopter.
Officially publishes today, April 2.
Here is an excerpt from The New Art of Photographing Nature that is officially available today.
The New Art of Photographing Nature – Excerpt by Crown Publishing Group
We are proud to present this fully revised edition of the classic bestseller The Art of Photographing Nature, in which master photographer Art Wolfe and former Audubon photo editor Martha Hill team up to explain the art of composing images of enduring beauty. Against a backdrop of more than 250 photographs of nature, wildlife, and landscapes, they share insights and advice about what works and what doesn’t, and how small changes can take an image from ordinary to extraordinary.
We have the book in stock and are filling orders now.
There’s still time to join Frans Lanting, Tom Mangelsen and me at our next MASTERS OF NATURE PHOTOGRAPHY seminar in Denver, Colorado, April 12th to 14th.

Hope to see you in Denver.

Torres del Paine National Park #1 – Images by Art Wolfe
It has been great shooting in Chile’s premier national park, Torres del Paine, the last few days. In just a few days I will be returning with another group to show them the wonders of this amazing landscape.
It has become a year of firsts for me: in Japan I was able to photograph the Steller’s sea eagles for the first time, and now when I am in Chilean Patagonia, I have been able to photograph Southern South American pumas and their cubs. A couple of these photos will surely find their way into my next book project for 2014.

Meet the Artist night at The Natural Wonders Gallery – Images by Art Wolfe
On Monday I was in Las Vegas to sign Human Canvas prints for the new Natural Wonders Gallery opening in New York. Later the gallery hosted a Meet the Artist reception. Many thanks to the gallery staff for setting this up and all the people who attended.

Snowy Owls – Images by Art Wolfe
Only a few days home from a six week long trip and I was growing antsy to get out and photograph. I grabbed a couple friends and we headed north to the George C. Reifel Wildlife Sanctuary in hopes of a snowy owl sighting. We saw only two—the last of the hungry winter migrants from the north. Like me they were antsy to start their own return journey & I photographed one individual testing out its wings. One of the other great charms of Reifel are the resident sandhill cranes. This is where I’ve always had the best opportunity to photograph these beautiful birds up close.
