I admit the following video is far from perfect or a professional production.  It was shot handheld with my friend’s Canon HV20 HD video camera.  I alone am responsible for the shaky video and crazy zooming techniques.  I hope to get better at it in the future and ask your indulgence.

My Winter Wildlife Photography Workshop had a total of six participants plus myself.  It was a really great group of people from a wide range of backgrounds from all over North America.  During the workshop the participants photographed a Cougar, a Bobcat, a trio of Arctic Foxes, a Snow Leopard, a pair of Canada Lynx, a pair of Arctic Wolves, a Siberian Lynx, a quartet of Tundra Wolves, a Siberian Tiger, a Grizzly Bear, a trio of Red Fox, a Silver Fox, a Raccoon and a Porcupine.  A very busy four days.  It was colder in Kalispell than it has been the last few years, but it was still quite bearable.  I didn’t video them all, but I did manage to catch some snippets of a few of the animals.

The following video should give you an idea of how healthy and attractive the animals are at Triple “D” along with the sort of environments (or compounds) you get to photograph them in.

Feel free to contribute a comment or question.
