In 2017, I was delighted to be approached by National Wildlife to write an article on how to photograph Yellowstone’s winter wildlife. The article, “Capturing Winter Wonder,” focused on the field craft, preparation, ethics, and patience required to photograph wildlife in one of the most demanding seasons of the year.

What Makes a Strong Yellowstone Winter Wildlife Image The best winter wildlife photographs are rarely just tight portraits. Strong winter images often combine clean backgrounds, visible behavior, careful composition, and a real sense of environment. Snow can simplify an image beautifully, but it can also fool the camera meter and turn white snow gray. Cold temperatures drain
