Translating science and complex conservation priorities into compelling messages that are accessible to larger audiences and decision-makers is an imperative that more and more conservation organizations are taking seriously, both in their strategy and in their budget.
Using engaging communications, strong visuals and interesting graphics is fast becoming an integral part of the conservation toolbox and the skills of photographers, film-makers, writers and other creative artists are in high demand. Tripods in the Mud is an effective way for
conservation groups to access professional photographers who understand
the scientific underpinnings of conservation and who have the necessary
skillset to deliver powerful material.

On assignment for the The Nature Conservancy, Justin Black documents the landscape of Dragon Run Swamp, the wild centerpiece Virginia’s Middle Peninsula. As one of
the healthiest and cleanest wetlands in the Chesapeake region, this
exceptional conservancy serves as a model for other watersheds around
the Bay, making it an interesting point of reference as iLCP prepares
to launch a Chesapeake Bay RAVE
in summer 2010.

A partnership between the iLCP and
Conservation International sent a Tripods in the Mud team to the
Abrolhos reef in Brazil. Abrolhos is unique not only because it is the
southernmost reef in the Atlantic, but also because it is made up of
relic species new to science that exist only in this region.
Conservation International is working to expand an existing Marine
Protected Area in hopes of reducing the impact of local and commercial
fisheries and the imagery created through the iLCP expedition will play
a key role in helping decision-makers understand the importance of the
region.
