Join NCWF Tri-County Conservationists Chapter, the Chatham Community Library, and the Friends of the Lower Haw for a presentation about ethical wildlife photography.

Photographs have a unique ability to tell a story, kindle emotions, raise awareness, and even inspire action. Experience the profound impact of nature photography both through observation of others’ work and by practicing nature photography yourself. Beyond creative expression, photography has the power to bring people together.

Bates Whitaker, Creative Content Manager for the North Carolina Wildlife Federation, will cover the importance of nature photography, how to get started, and how to avoid the pitfalls of unethical wildlife photography practices. Nature photography possesses the potential for significant positive impact, but unethical practices can also result in harm. Being well-informed about the wildlife and habitat you interact with is crucial, as it directly affects their wellbeing. Topics covered include: ethics, composition and practice, and how to share your photographs. Come for the information, stay for the pictures!
