Michelle Guillermin focuses on telling the story of community based conservation efforts, highlighting the challenges faced by humans and animals attempting to coexist in limited space.  Her primary love is East Africa and she can be found lying on the ground with a camera near a herd of elephants many times throughout the year.  Michelle has published articles in Outdoor Photographer, Diplomatic Courier and various online publications showing the good results of thoughtful conservation activities.  Her “real” job with an international NGO that focuses on serving women who have been impacted by war takes her to places in Africa and the Middle East where there are few animals – but allows her to plan side trips to her beloved Kenya.
Michelle will discuss the use of triangles to improve composition of photos — even when we may not recognize that there are triangles involved.
