WEBINAR ENDED
About This Webinar
Alyce Bender, Tamron Ambassador, and Dawn Wilson, board member for the North American Nature Photography Association, will share with you the beauty and nature of Nome, Alaska, under the midnight sun. During the presentation, not only will they share a wide portfolio of images but also the challenges and triumphs that come with photographing this region. Images and knowledge about the landscapes, wildlife, and some of the history of this rural Alaskan town and the surrounding villages will showcase many of the reasons you may just want to join Bender and Dawn next June to experience the Nature of Nome yourself! A question and answer session will follow as usual for any inquires you might have for Bender or Dawn.

    Dawn Wilson
    Photo Instructor
    I have been taking photographs and have been around animals ever since I was a kid. A move to Colorado in 2002 from New Jersey, however, is what really inspired me to focus my work on photographing the beautiful wildlife and scenery of the Rocky Mountains.

    A full-time photographer and writer, I specialize in photographing and telling the stories about wildlife of high latitudes and high altitudes of the Rocky Mountains and Alaska. Animals at these locations love the cold as much as I do, and the views bring peace to an often hectic life as a nature photographer. I travel extensively visiting remote locations looking for wildlife to tell their story, raise awareness about wildlife habitat conservation, and write about many of these destinations in magazine articles. My photographs are in galleries and collections throughout North America, and I have more than 600 bylines for my writing and photography in numerous magazines, books and calendars, including Outdoor Photographer, Colorado Outdoors, Colorado Life, Wyoming Wildlife, Colorado Outdoors, National Geographic Digital, Motorhome, and Alaska magazine.
