Thomas Mangelsen - A Life in the Wild Part 2
Renowned American nature photographer Thomas D. Mangelsen has journeyed across the globe, capturing the beauty of Earth’s most extraordinary and untamed landscapes. His stunning body of work showcases breathtaking panoramas and rare, intimate moments in nature, collected from his adventures on all seven continents.
A Life in the Wild Part 2 will be open to the public beginning October 4 and closes November 26. Viewers will enjoy a continuation of Mangelsen’s photographic journey, featuring bold wildlife encounters and dramatic landscapes.
American nature photographer Thomas D. Mangelsen has traveled across every continent in the past five decades capturing wildlife in their natural and sometimes hostile habitat. Viewers will see vast, colorful, scenic vistas, animal families, and striking close-ups in a large photo format that has used no digital manipulation. Mangelsen uses a Nikon D5 and a Nikon D610 camera.
Mangelsen intends to elevate public awareness about the global poaching crisis, animal extinction, and circumstances of climate change through his stimulating imagery that makes you realize we all share this planet, even though many choose to never go into the wild.
Financial assistance for this project has been provided by the Missouri Arts Council, a state agency.
