Left Hand Valley Courier - All Local, All The Time

Renowned Colorado nature photographer John Fielder will be sharing work from his latest book, Colorado: Black on White, at the first annual Nature St. Vrain on Friday, April 12 in Longmont.

Fielder, whose popular calendars and books showcase Colorado’s landscapes, will be giving a multimedia presentation featuring over 200 of his Colorado photographs, as well as sharing stories of life on the trail, photo tips and more.

Nature St. Vrain, an environmental open house, was created to celebrate the contributions of K-12 students to citizen science projects. It is an effort of the Education Foundation of St. Vrain Valley, St. Vrain Valley Schools, Boulder County Parks and Open Space, and the City of Longmont.

Fielder has been capturing Colorado in pictures for over 40 years, and is a tireless advocate of protecting the state’s natural wildlands and open spaces. He travels, hikes and skis hundreds of miles of Colorado each year to record the state’s unique beauty.

After Fielder’s presentation, he will be selling and signing many of his popular books and calendars, donating 30 percent of all books sales back to the Education Foundation for St. Vrain Valley.
