Nature Study Group #1: Sharon Prislipsky

Although I have always been interested in art and photography, I have been actively working to become a capable photographer for about five years. That is when I got my first DSLR camera and began to develop a passion for it. I do not think of this as a hobby, but rather as a serious art form. I live in Arkansas, which is known as “The Natural State” so I have a lot of opportunity nearby. I also travel quite a bit throughout the U.S., mostly to natural areas where wildlife is abundant. I like to photograph flora, insects, animals of all types, and scenics. I am president of our community camera club and belong to two others in the area. My current goal is to capture better images of birds in flight, butterflies and other insects.
