Michael Milicia

I am a nature photographer from Bedford, Massachusetts specializing in birds. I strive to create images that go beyond natural history documentation and become artistic images in their own right. I am motivated by a love of nature, a fascination with wildlife, and the never-ending challenge of finding that perfect combination of good light, cooperative subject, attractive setting, and beautiful background that allows me to create an artistically pleasing image.

My training has come from self-study and from seminars and workshops led by several of the top nature photography professionals working today, most notably Arthur Morris, Charles Glatzer, and Chris Dodds. The choice of birds as my primary subject is largely due to inspiration drawn from the writings and photographs of Arthur Morris. I am continually amazed at the diversity and complexity of the avian world and it is the natural grace and beauty of these wonderful creatures that makes my work possible.

I currently market my work as fine art prints, note cards, and calendars at art fairs and exhibits throughout New England and at NOA Gifts in Groton, West Concord, and Harvard, Massachusetts. More images and information can be found at http://www.miliciaphoto.com.
