CC Lockwood photography workshops

by Dege Legg

Wildlife photographer CC Lockwood conducts several photography workshops.
If you like nature as much as taking photographs of nature, you could learn a thing or two from one of Louisiana's master nature photographers. Wildlife photographer CC Lockwood has lived and worked in fragile ecosystems whose preservation shapes his artistry. Through words and images, he has captured the unique sense of space in wild places as diverse as Louisiana swampland and the rugged backcountry of the American West. His work has earned him international acclaim as an environmental artist, including the Sierra Club's Ansel Adams Award for conservation photography. Lockwood's work continues to reflect changes and perils in the natural world.
