About Photographing Rocky Mountain National Park
Product Description Are you planning a visit to Rocky Mountain National Park? Do you want to take stunning photos of this incredible landscape? Then you will want to get a copy of this book. Photographing Rocky Mountain National Park is the only book of its kind telling you exactly where to go and when to be there to get the most amazing photos. Whether you are coming for just a quick overnight visit or here to spend a week you’ll find exactly what you are looking for including the best easily accessible sunrise or sunset locations, where to find various species of wildlife and what to pay attention to during each season of the year. Most travel books are written by people who've visited a national park a couple of times and then write about it. This book however is written by a professional nature photographer who has spent over 15 years living at the edge of the Park and exploring its hidden corners. As a result, you'll learn lots of helpful insights that you would only gain by having lived here yourself. About the Author Erik Stensland was born in Minnesota in 1968 but moved many times before he was 18. His first real memories are from the mountains outside of Helena, Montana, where at ages 5 and 6 he would spend his days hiking through the forest, exploring miles of mountain terrain around his house. Everywhere he moved he was drawn to the natural world, spending his days creating his own secret trails up to the top of nearby hills or climbing a tree to get a better view. His junior high and high school years were spent cycling throughout the countryside where he could enjoy quiet and beautiful views. Throughout Erik’s life, the beauty of nature has called to him. After college Erik moved overseas, living in Austria, Bulgaria, Albania, and Kosovo. He met his wife, Joanna, in Austria and they spent over a decade working with the Albanian people, doing everything from creating an ecotourism program, teaching English, assisting local artists, starting a refugee agency, helping local churches meet the needs of their society, and many other projects. After suffering severe burnout, Erik and Joanna moved to Colorado in 2004. Erik became a landscape photographer in the hope that this might be a way to get paid to hike, as the silence of the wilderness is where he is renewed. While it has involved more office work than he ever imagined, he’s still managed to explore nearly every corner of Rocky Mountain National Park, hiking every trail, most of them more times than he can count. In 2007 Erik opened his gallery in Estes Park. Since then Erik has become one of the primary photographers focusing on Rocky Mountain National Park. He’s published numerous books, opened other gallery and display locations, and contributes to various local and national publications. Erik tends to avoid the spotlight and can most often be found heading in the opposite direction of the crowds, looking for quiet trails that lead into places of beauty and silence.
