SUMMARY:Boyce Thompson Arboretum - Wildlife Photography Lecture & Slideshow with Author Bruce Taubert
DESCRIPTION:Wildlife Photography Lecture & Slideshow w/ Bruce Taubert\nBoyce Thompson Arboretum\nNovember 19th @ 10:30 AM\ \nFour decades photographing Arizona Wildlife has made Bruce Taubert rich with experience and anecdotes – from netting bats after dark\, to staying clam while face-to-face with massive bull elk on the Mogollon RIm. Taubert earned a doctorate in Wildlife Management and retired a few years back as assistant director for wildlife managment at the Arizona Game and Fish Department – and celebrates his latest accomplishment with an enthralling slideshow and lecture announcing release of his new book: “Wild in Arizona: Photographing Arizona’s Wildlife” Nov. 19th. His presentation begins at 10:30 a.m. in the lecture room at Boyce Thompson Arboretum; it’s included with $10 daily admission. Arrive early – BTA opens at 8:00 and there’s a guided birdwalk at 8:30\, also included with Saturday admission. Available now in the giftshop\, Taubert’s  new book spotlights the Arboretum among 50 spectacular locations to find a broad diversity of animals to photograph across Arizona. Packed with 220 color photographs and technical information\, Taubert’s book adds instructional wildlife photography tips\, ‘Making the Photo’ stories\,  a comprehensive checklist of photography basics and gear – and a calendar that predicts year-round wildlife photography opportunities around the  Grand Canyon State. Nov. 19 he’ll share photographs and anecdotes during the 10:30 a.m. slideshow – and as a special bonus to book-buyers\, following a lunch break\, Taubert will guide a special photo walk-a-bout for those with a copy of his new book. “We’ll spend some time in the gardens surrounded by the Arboretum’s famous Fall foliage and I’ll share tips and offer some coaching about photographing butterflies – because these colorful and dynamic insects offer many of the same lessons and challenges you’d encounter photographing javelina\, bears or elk – but on a smaller scale —  and also closer-to-home\,” said Taubert.  Taubert has taught Arizona Highways Photo Workshops and lectured about wildlife photography here at BTA; has been published in Arizona Highways\, WildBird\, Birders’ World – among dozens of other magazines. \nSee more of Taubert’s photos at    http://www.pbase.com/brucetaubert
