Tina Bibergall is a stay-at-home mom who has enjoyed
photographing her three sons and daughter over the past 14
years. Over the past five years, her hobby has evolved into a
passion for capturing the beauty of nature and the importance of
teaching the next generation to appreciate all it has to offer.
The artist’s philosophy, “The concept of conservation and Going
Green can be more real to children when they witness up-close a
mother bird feeding her baby or a flower opening its petals.
Put a camera in their hands and it will leave a lasting
impression of some smaller reasons why our Earth is so
precious."
Ms. Bibergall’s favorite photography spots are the Chicago
Botanic Gardens, Tucson Botanic Gardens, various trails in
Central Wisconsin, and many “secret spots” in the Bartlett area.
She and her four children use Nikon equipment – from her six
year-old’s point-and-shoot to her Nikon D90 with 80-300 Image
Stabilizing Lens and 105 mm Macro lens. They are a Nikon family
and have spent memorable hours photographing nature together. |
