We welcome local photographer Danny Brown, who will present a collection of Missouri wildlife images and provide technical tips not only about how he "makes the shot" but also how he locates critters and photographs them with minimal intrusion into their daily activities. He will also explain his simple approach to post-processing that has served him well over the last two decades. Danny is a photographer and writer specializing in Missouri wildlife. He holds a master’s degree in Fisheries and Wildlife from the University of Missouri and served for 25 years as a biologist with the Missouri Department of Conservation. In 2006, Danny began photographing wildlife that he encountered while hunting. Since then, he has published over 50 photo essays in The Missouri Conservationist, including several cover stories and features. By 2010 Danny had given up hunting all together to make more time for wildlife photography. Danny’s photos have been featured in magazines across the country, including Birds and Blooms, Birdwatching, Ducks Unlimited, Audubon, National Wildlife, and various state conservation magazines and calendars. His images have been published in several books including two National Geographic bird guides. When asked the secret to his success, Danny says it is simple: I strive for exceptional images of common critters rather than mediocre images of rare critters. Danny and his wife, Joyce, live on 60 acres outside of Union, Missouri, where he has captured many of his most popular images. Doors will open at 6 pm. Visitors can tour the exhibits during this time. Robyn Parker
