For Ty’s entire life, he’s called New Hampshire home. His experiences in the White Mountains and his love of mountaineering literature have played a significant role in his education. Both have taught him important lessons about decision-making, leadership, risk-taking-and humility. His professional work in risk management has let him use these lessons almost daily.
Several years ago, he decided to take things a step further by writing about real-life events that demonstrate the value of learning and heeding what the mountains have to teach us. In his writing and his talks, he shares his own encounters with decision-making challenges in hopes of helping others assess and reflect on the experiences they themselves have had at home, at work, or in high places.

Photographing Birds in the Field with Tony Baldasaro *WAITLIST*

This program is at capacity. Please join the waitlist and we’ll be in touch if space becomes available.
Join regionally renowned wildlife photographer Tony Baldasaro for a bird photography field trip. Tony will take you out to the northern side of the Burley Farms property to get up close with the fields, forest, and beaver pond and our avian friends who call these places home. Participants will learn more about finding the best scenarios for bird photography- including lighting, bird position, and bird action shots. This field trip is for photographers with at least some wildlife photography experience and the suggested equipment includes:

Binoculars
DSLR or Mirrorless Camera
Lens long enough for wildlife photography (more than 200 mm). Ideally this will be a zoom lens and not a fixed lens. (see below)
Because we will be primarily photographing small, fast-moving birds, a zoom lens with a wide range of focal lengths is ideal. (100-400, 100-500, 150 – 600 are examples). Having a big, heavy prime lens, like a fixed 600mm, will only slow our participants down.
A tripod is not recommended as it can slow down your photography. Photographers should prepare to be handheld or use a nimble monopod.

We hope you can join this educational and fun morning of bird photography at Burley! To learn more about Tony and his photography, visit his website at tb3photography.com or find him on Instagram @tb3_photo.
