239: Matthew Dolkart

from Wildlife Photo Chat Hosted by Ray Hennessy

My guest Matthew Dolkart joins me to chat about spending time and really working your local patch to gain knowledge and understanding to help betting your photography. We also discuss how seeing a hummingbird building a nest in urban Chicago sparked his interest in bird photography and how cool it was to see that bird return to the same spot year after year. Then we wrap up the conversation talking about his push towards more moody photos lately, what that means, how he is trying to achieve it, EMO bird week, and many other fun topics, hope you all enjoy the show!
