Photographer Jim Codington Takes Us on a Wild Adventure, February 14, 10:30 AM, Berger Center
Come Early: Refreshments at 10 AM
Photographer Jim Codington will take us on an unforgettable journey through some of the world's most untouched and awe-inspiring landscapes. Through his lens, viewers will be transported to the remote Arctic, where they will witness breathtaking images of polar bears traversing the glacial plateaus of the extreme north, captured through traditional photography and immersive 360-degree video footage. His expertise in wildlife photography, honed over years of exploration, allows his audience to develop a profound connection with nature that few can experience firsthand. Jim's presentation will also take attendees soaring above the rugged Alaskan backcountry, where his compelling drone footage will offer a bird's-eye view of the untamed wilderness in search of the majestic bald eagle. But the journey does not stop there-viewers will also be treated to intimate and striking images of lions, polar bears, and bald eagles, alongside breathtaking landscapes of Iceland's glaciers and waterfalls, as well as the lush rolling plateaus of Palouse in eastern Washington. More than just a visual spectacle, Jim's presentation is infused with riveting stories of adventure, deep respect for wildlife, and a passion for conservation. His most recent book, Whispers in the Wild, will also be available for attendees to purchase, with all proceeds generously donated to cheetah conservation projects in Africa. Those in attendance will have the special opportunity to meet Jim and hear firsthand about his experiences. Having greatly enjoyed speaking at Oakmont last year, Jim is honored to return and share his latest collection of images and stories, offering his audience a rare glimpse into the wonders of the natural world.
