235: Dawn Wilson - Ethics in Nature Photography

Welcome to episode 235 of F-Stop Collaborate and Listen!

This week on the podcast I was joined by Dawn Wilson, a wildlife and nature photographer living in Estes Park, Colorado at the base of Rocky Mountain National Park. Dawn is a fantastic wildlife photographer and the president of the North American Nature Photography Association.

• How Dawn has leveraged her college degrees in her pursuit of her full-time photography career,
• Dawn's 15-month trip in an RV,
• Raising awareness about wildlife conservation,
• The top ethical issues facing nature photographers,
• Dawn's role as president of NANPA,
• The changing landscape of the places we love and reservation systems,
• And a lot more!
