‘Experience Nature’ with Tyler MacDonald

Submitted

The Marco Island Historical Museum is delighted to host “Experience Nature” a photographic exhibit from Tyler MacDonald, which runs July 1-Aug. 30. Marco’s own MacDonald will be exhibiting some of his latest photography at.

At just 18 years old, MacDonald has already won numerous awards and national recognition for his work including second-place in the National Wildlife Federation’s annual photo contest. His passion for wildlife photography is evident in each and every photograph. Taking risks and spending hours waiting to capture the perfect

image, MacDonald has encountered many venomous snakes, sat in trees and been suspended above water to capture rare creatures in the wild. His work has allowed him to become a steward of the earth, teaching people to love nature one photograph at a time.
