About the Instructor: Tom Oliver
Tom Oliver is an avid photographer of wildlife and landscapes, including dark skies and northern lights. Since he was a child, nature, wildlife, and the outdoors have always been his deepest fascination – the intrinsic force which drives him. Those interests led him through, both, his career (in wildlife ecology/management and science education) and his preferred forms of recreation (hiking, backpacking, canoeing and kayaking, photography, hunting and fishing, and birding). Although, he was born and raised in the UP, these pursuits also provided me the opportunity to live overseas (in Europe and Asia) for 15 years, which greatly expanded my experience with the outdoors and outdoor recreation in different cultures.
Tom maintains a passion for photography and the outdoors that he delights in sharing with students. His photography work can be viewed at teoliver.com and @theupwell on Instagram.
