News: Photography Tips from Mark Brazil

Mark BrazilDr. Mark Brazil, a regular Zegrahm expedition leader and field staff member, is also a published author and avid wildlife photographer. Mark happily shares some digital photography tips in the October edition of the ‘Wild Watch’ column he writes for The Japan Times.

Mark’s column provides insight into maximizing small-bodied cameras, shooting wildlife close to home, visiting a local zoo to improve your skills, and exploiting smaller subjects for their photogenic qualities. Read the full article at this link: Wildlife on your doorstep.

Mark will be leading several expeditions for us in the near future, including one he designed especially for Zegrahm. Our Snow Monkeys & Cranes Eco-Expedition highlights Japan’s striking beauty and prolific winter wildlife. The peaceful, snow-clad landscape of the rural countryside and soft, winter light create the perfect backdrop for amazing photography. And though Mark designed this expedition with nature-lovers and serious photographers in mind, travelers will also enjoy a unique culinary experience as our gracious hosts serve us gourmet Japanese dishes and share time-honored dining traditions.

    Mark, Thank you very much for your insight. Photography tips are always helpful. For many years I have been in publishing, having worked for the Smithsonian Institution’s magazines and others, and would often ask our photographers for guidance on film, exposure, lenses, etc….and still periodically, do. Having your information venue is most appreciated. Thank you and I look forward to continuing to enjoy your guidance.
