Outdoor and
Wildlife Photography

by
Tom Mathewson

I produce photographs
of wildlife and distinctive scenery
mainly in Utah as well as
national parks throughout the west.


Catch up on my latest posts on Facebook. Every few days I post a picture, analyze it as a photo lesson, give photo tips on how we all can improve our techniques ... or just enjoy the picture as an example of the natural beauty that surrounds us!

GREAT SALT LAKE BIRD FESTIVAL
MAY 15 - 18, 2025
THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY

The Great Salt Lake Bird Festival continues to grow and grow in popularity! There are plenty of field trips, seminars, workshops and displays to choose from this nationally and world-wide recognized event.

On Thursday morning I'll guide a road tour through a section of Farmington Bay for photographers. We'll have hands-on sessions at each stop of the tour covering equipment tips, camera settings and shooting techniques. We'll work on hand-held techniques and shooting from a car as well as using a tripod.

Last year I guided a Farmington Bay road tour on Friday, just like the previous Thursday. This time, however, we're working on something completely different. So far no road trip, but something fun that I can't reveal yet. Stay tuned ...

On Saturday morning, 9 am, I'll hold a 1 hour seminar on bird photography, covering fundamentals before jumping into using your artistic vision to capture great bird photos. Just like last year it'll be at the Eccles Wildlife Education Center.

Details are still being worked, so keep checking their website at greatsaltlakebirdfest.com.
