Here is a chance to photograph wild birds in their own habitat. The Carolina Raptor Center in Huntersville, NC, is setting aside a private photoshoot for Sawtooth photographers. The center will place many wild birds in their natural habitat for our students to photograph. The birds frequently brought out to photograph are; a Great Horned Owl, Peregrine Falcon, Barn Owl, Eurasian Eagle Owl, Red Shouldered Hawk, American Kestral and an Eastern Screech Owl. There will also be a bird in flight to photograph.We will meet at the Carolina Raptor Center in Huntersville, NC, at 10am Saturday, March 14. The shoot will last approximate 2 hours.

  • In case of bad weather there will be a rain date of Saturday, March 21. The price of $35 is non-refundable due to the nature of the event. This is open to all students not just photo league members.

She has had a camera in her hand since 1976, and continues to use photography not only as an art form, but as a means of communication and self-expression.

Charles Hahn grew up in Buffalo, NY, and he currently resides in Winston-Salem, NC. Combining his love of fine art with his passion for street photography, sports, landscapes, nature, and portrait photography, Hahn creates unforgettable photographic images: people, places, and moments in time. “The subjects in my photos are always more important than the overall photograph itself. There’s an attraction I have to a person’s imperfections that stand out for me when I find a subject.”
