What some folks have said about this trip with Donna:
“This time last year, I was in Homer Alaska with Donna Bourdon photographing eagles in snow. What an amazing experience with our American National Bird.”
“My husband and I had a fantastic trip to Alaska to photograph primarily bald eagles. Donna led us on a magical journey into the eagles’ world.”
“Honestly, it was one of the best wildlife photographic experiences of my life and I feel like I was able to capture some of the best images ever as well. On a scale of “1-10” I would rate it a NINE - only because there should always be room for improvement and I feel like you and Donna as instructors and myself as an aspiring photographer should always push ourselves to improve and grow as we move through life. ”
