He developed a system for photographing minute copepods and daphnia in the field and witnessed a tiger salamander migration for the first time. Much of this work appears in a new e-book he developed for the North American Nature Photography Association titled <a href=\"http:\/\/nanpa.org\/handbooks\"><em>Vernal Pools: Documenting Life in Temporary Ponds<\/em>. <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this talk, Johnson will share natural history images from his sabbatical project and discuss the field documentation process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>His photography of the natural world has appeared in <em>Orion, Nature Conservancy Magazine, Ranger Rick<\/em>, <em>Virginia Wildlife<\/em>, National Science Teachers Association Press books and numerous conservation publications and journals. Johnson is vice-president of the Virginia Wilderness Committee and an Affiliate of the International League of Conservation Photographers. When not in the office, you\u2019ll probably find him crouched next to a vernal pool photographing Appalachian salamanders. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Learn more at <a href=\"http:\/\/stevendavidjohnson.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">stevendavidjohnson.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"791\" src=\"https:\/\/emu-wordpress-multisite-instance-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/43\/2021\/02\/17092242\/cover-1024x791.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-48532\" srcset=\"https:\/\/emu-wordpress-multisite-instance-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/43\/2021\/02\/17092242\/cover-1024x791.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/emu-wordpress-multisite-instance-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/43\/2021\/02\/17092242\/cover-300x232.jpg 300w, https:\/\/emu-wordpress-multisite-instance-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/43\/2021\/02\/17092242\/cover-768x593.jpg 768w, https:\/\/emu-wordpress-multisite-instance-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/43\/2021\/02\/17092242\/cover.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Photographer Steven Johnson, professor of visual and communication arts, will present a virtual University Colloquium Wednesday, Feb. 17, from 4:15-5:15 p.m. Members of the public can view the free livestream <a href=\"https:\/\/emu.edu\/now\/news\/2021\/vernal-pools-photographer-to-present-next-university-colloquium\/\" target=\"_self\" class=\"more-link\">... read more <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">about Vernal pools photographer to present next University Colloquium<\/span><\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":36506,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5861,17562,5642,12507],"tags":[],"feature":[17241],"class_list":["post-48498","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-conferences-and-events","category-digest","category-faculty-and-staff","category-vaca","feature-news-feature"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.6 -
