NATtalk: Baja's Wild Side
Dr. Daniel Cartamil is a marine biologist at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography who has traveled the Pacific coast of Baja California, studying the region's sharks and traditional shark fisheries for more than a decade. In the process, Cartamil discovered a fragile paradise of remote landscapes, wildlife, and cultural treasures on the verge of being overtaken by modern civilization.
Science and art converge as we take a photographic journey through western Baja California, from the shark fishing camps of Bahia Vizcaino to the high sierra to ancient cave paintings hidden deep in the desert. This NATtalk will be illustrated with breathtaking photography from Cartamil’s new book, Baja’s Wild Side. NATtalk ticket holders will have exclusive access to Daniel's photography exhibition from 5:30 to 7 pm.
