Festival of the Cranes 2019 - Deadly Beauty Photography with Matthew Mitchell

The ultimate predator: That’s how naturalist Matt Mitchell likes to refer to raptors according to John Larson - El Defensor Chieftain Staff Writer.

This was the second workshop lead by Matt I have been privileged to attend. This proved to be a more challenging experience due to the weather; it was overcast and rained. Photos from the 2018 workshop show the drastic differences in the light and conditions.

Matt made sure that the format was flexible to accommodate the conditions. The workshop began in the field and later moved to Matt’s home where we experienced an up-close presentation with his raptors.
