Undergraduate credit* for all Sojourns in Nature itineraries is available
through Sterling College and students should have no difficulty transferring
these credits to their home institutions.  All programs are organized and
conducted by Gustav W. Verderber, a nationally published, award-winning
nature photojournalist and naturalist.

We post these itineraries only twice a year.  If you feel that these
programs do not merit mention on this discussion list, then kindly let us
know by sending an email to mailto:[log in to unmask]  However, we hope
that you find our offerings of sufficient merit to permit their announcement
on this listserv and that you will distribute them to fellow faculty and
students.

GUSTAV W. VERDERBER TO BE KODAK AMBASSADOR AT YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK

Kodak & Yellowstone National Park have invited me to be this year’s Kodak
Ambassador at Yellowstone National Park.  The invitation is an honor and a
recognition of my work thus far and I will indeed accept the invitation.
This means that I will necessarily have to cancel or postpone some of my
spring and summer workshops & tours (see below) since the Kodak assignment
extends from June 1 – August 30.  To be sure, I will miss photographing on
my home ground and working on my Northern Forest portfolio but I simply
cannot pass up this wonderful opportunity.  If you’re in Yellowstone in
2003, please come by and consider joining me on a photo safari in the park.

UPDATED 2003-2004 TOUR SCHEDULE

My Yellowstone assignment will necessarily interfere with several of my 2003
workshops and tours.  Here is the new 2003 schedule.

The Green Mountain Nature Photography Workshop & Camp-In (GMNP & Camp-In)
has been postponed until Fall and will now be combined with the Fall Foliage
Magical Mystery Tour.  The itinerary for the GMNP & Camp-In will remain the
same, only the dates have been changed.  The new dates are October 3 – 9,
2003 which span the peak of Vermont’s fall foliage season.  The workshop
will also include a moose hunt in Vermont’s NE Kingdom.

The 2003 summer Africa tour and the Tom Jordan Memorial Boreal Coast Tour
have been cancelled.  I will offer The Tom Jordan Memorial Boreal Coast Tour
again in late July of 2004.  This is my post popular tour and I very much
look forward to returning to the Bold Coast and joining Capt. Andy Patterson
to photograph Atlantic puffins, seals, bald eagles, whales, tide pools, and
stunning seascapes.

The December Costa Rica Wildlife safari and the January, 2004 Kenya Safari
will, of course, not be affected.  The Costa Rica Wildlife safari is nearly
filled so if you’re considering joining us on that tour contact us
immediately.

Finally, we still have three (out of a precious five) spaces remaining in
the outstanding S.E. Alaska, 2004 wildlife safari.  You must contact us as
soon as possible to secure one of those spaces for yourself.  Deposits for
this tour are due by September, 2003.  Don’t miss this opportunity to
photograph breeching humpback whales, grizzlies feeding on salmon, glaciers,
bald eagles perched on cobalt blue ice bergs and more with me next year.

NO FEAR OF CANOEING

Finally, be sure to pick up a copy of the spring issue of Nature
Photographer Magazine and check out my article on photographing wildlife
from a canoe.  Since the advent of Canon’s IS technology, my canoe has
become an invaluable part of my photographic ensemble and allows me to
photograph in situations I would never have imagined taking a super
telephoto in the past.

SOJOURNS IN THE WILD

This acclaimed multi-media natural history presentation has been hailed by
William H. Meadows, president of the Wilderness Society as “a superb piece -
one I hope is shown frequently throughout the region.”  Ideal for campuses,
nature centers, conferences…Earth Day.
