The rules of exposure and composition are important, but breaking them
‘properly’ can add a wow factor to your images. Take your bird photography to
the next level and create artistic compositions by paying attention to light, detail
and especially backgrounds.
Kevin Loughlin was raised to appreciate nature while exploring the woodlands
of Pennsylvania as a child. At age six, during a family trip through the American
West, Kevin became fascinated with photography as well seeing the new and
different birds throughout North America. In 1993 he founded Wildside Nature
Tours. Kevin’s photographs and articles have appeared in publications such as
WildBird, Audubon, Nature Photographer and Philadelphia Magazines, as well as
many natural history books including the latest Peterson Reference Guide: The
Owls of North American and the Caribbean by Scott Weidensaul. Kevin has also
authored a Pocket Guide to Digital Nature Photography and currently has two
additional book projects on his plate.
