Talking Photography 2014 at Curious Animal

Art wolfe on location in Bhutan

curiousanimallogowebCurious Animal is an online magazine for Adventure Travel, Photography, Music, Books, Big Issues and Ideas from around the world. Graeme Green interviewed me for a couple of pieces on Curious Animal. Apparently they had the pleasure of talking to many of the world’s best photographers, from Steve McCurry to Soren Solkaer, who spend their time traveling the world photographing everything from sharks to rock stars. I discussed disappearing cultures… Roger Ballen on the art of the strange… Chris Hadfield on photographing the Earth from space… Here are some of their thoughts on photography, the world and life itself.

Big Changes to my “Workshop” site

Photographers at sunset, Skagit Flats, Washington

For those that peruse my site often, you are used to seeing a link to my “Workshops” site, which has always been more than just workshops. It has now been re-built, and will include information on all types of events including seminars, presentations, online only events, as well as tours organized by partners.

It is officially our “Workshops, Events and Seminars” page, but you can find it by clicking “EVENTS” in the top menu.

You can view the content on the new site in a few different ways: a list, calendar by month, or a map.

We designed the site to be mobile friendly, as well as integrated with our new look. I hope you like the new Event site and look forward to seeing you at one of the events soon!

Mount Rainier Workshop

Mount Rainier is my backyard and I have been going there since my youth. There is nothing better that rediscovering it with new people. The wildflowers were in full bloom and the clear night sky revealed the Milky Way in all its cosmic glory.

Missed this year’s workshop? I have planned another for 2015!
