Oliver Klink has been photographing in Africa since 2006. His image, “The Great Migration” won the grand prize at PhotoCentral Gallery Spring Show in 2013, others have received “mentioned” in the Black and White Spidar Awards for the past 7 years. “On my first trip to Africa, I wanted to see everything. I spent more time driving from famous locations to famous locations. After so many years, I have minimized the travel time to stop at parks that are unbelievable for specific species. This workshop is not a “zoo tour”. During our first review session, I will ask you: “Can this image be taken in a zoo?” Our local guides are passionate about wildlife and eager to be the first one out in the morning and last one in in the evening. Time spend in the field is key to embrace this one in a life time experience.”
Gero Heine has been photographing wildlife and wild places in Africa, India, Alaska and the Western United States for the past 15 years. He is involved in conservation efforts and has volunteered in a lion research project.
Gero previously won the Wildlife Category of Nature's Best Photography Magazine's Windland Smith Rice International Awards, with his work consequently displayed at the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History in Washington D.C. He was a Top 10 image award winner by NANPA (North American Nature Photography Association), was twice selected a Winning Finalist in the "Great Outdoors" Contest by PDN Magazine, and a Merit Award recipient in BW Magazine’s and Color Magazine’s Single Image Contests. Gero exhibits his work at Fine Art Festivals across the Western United States.
