He will present rare images of these elusive and beautiful endangered species which he often requires many months in the field, working under dangerous and difficult conditions.
Steve will share his gripping tales live on stage, from coming face-to-face with tigers in India’s Kaziranga National Park which is one of the last places where tigers still share the land with elephants, rhinos, and deer to capturing nocturnal adventures of a mountain lion in the Hollywood hills. He has also been charged by a grizzly in Siberia and trapped in quicksand in the world’s largest tiger reserve in Myanmar. He’s flown over erupting volcanoes and visited isolated villages where residents had never before seen a blond foreigner—or a camera.
Here is a video of Steve Winter describing his favorite photo and the “magical” moment when he took the picture. To watch the video, please click HERE.
