• October 28, "Prairie Thunder" with Dave Showalter
  
  

  	Colorado-based photographer and author Dave Showalter will present images from his recent book, Prairie Thunder – The Nature of Colorado's Great Plains, which explores the often overlooked beauty of Colorado’s eastern plains and addresses their conservation challenges. From the wind-swept Pawnee Buttes near the Wyoming border, home to pronghorns and prairie falcons, to the Comanche Grasslands area in southeastern Colorado, currently under threat by the U.S. Army’s Piñon Canyon expansion plans, Dave details the diversity of land and wildlife that makes the prairie so special. Dave has been photographing in Colorado and the west for over 15 years. His photographs and articles have appeared in Outside, Outdoor Photographer, Backpacker, Nature Photographer, Crested Butte Magazine, and the Colorado Mountain Club’s Colorado Fourteeners scenic calendar. Dave is also a contributor to the award-winning Skyline Press book 14,000 Feet – A Celebration of Colorado’s Highest Mountains.
