Cheyenne Audubon free demonstration: Bird Photography Using Blinds with Elizabeth Boehm
Award-winning Pinedale, Wyoming, wildlife photographer Elizabeth Boehm will be presenting a free demonstration open to the public April 30, 7 a.m. Boehm will demonstrate various kinds of blinds at the Cheyenne Botanic Gardens’ Paul Smith Children’s Village, 710 S. Lions Park Drive. She will discuss any other tools needed for comfort and working with the weather conditions. “As wildlife photographers, we need to be able to conceal ourselves from our photo subjects to catch natural behavior. A variety of blinds can be used to bring the photographer a bit closer without flushing or disturbing the intended bird/wildlife,” Boehm said. Using blinds, her goal is to be able to approach her subject a bit closer and to capture natural behavior. She is an award-winning photographer having placed in the Top 10 photos in the North American Nature Photography Association Showcase, first place in the 2019 National Audubon professional bird photo contest, and grand prize in the Wyoming Wildlife Photo Competition along with numerous images published in books and magazines.
