Unlike many photographers of wildlife, John Winnie Jr. does not pursue his subjects as an artist in search of a model, or a hunter in search of a trophy. He sees the wild creatures who inhabit the high country of North America as survivors of the Ice Age--animals who have learned to adapt to a continually changing world, who are invaluable as living solutions to problems we will face in the future. Winnie is on intimate terms with his subjects: you can count the whiskers in his striking portrait of a hoary marmot. If you don't want to get quite so close to this little critter--and those teeth do look rather sharp--you can make the acquaintance of harlequin ducks, golden eagles, bighorn rams, and mountain goats.
