January 8 - 31
Exhibit - "In the Galapagos Islands"
David Jonathan Cohen photographs birds and other wildlife around the world. Few destinations attract him as often as Patuxent Research Refuge, which he has visited more than 40 times in the last decade. This exhibit, though, comes from David's visiting 8 of the 13 major Galapagos Islands in January 2025.
The islands boast unique species that vary even from island to island. David's subjects include giant tortoises, marine iguanas, Sally Lightfoot crabs, and birds found only on the islands. David’s photos have appeared in books, magazines, newspapers, websites, and exhibitions. He also contributes the use of his photos to conservation nonprofits, including the Friends of Patuxent Research Refuge: he has contributed photos to their annual Exploring Patuxent Research Refuge calendar.
In Rock Creek Park and Linnean Park in Washington, DC, posters featuring David’s photos help visitors identify the birds, butterflies, and other creatures they see.
To see more than 1700 of his photos from around the world, please check Instagram at DavidCohenPhotoDC. To contact David, please email him at DavidCohenPhotoDC@gmail.com.
Meet the artist at a reception in the Visitor Center's Hollingsworth Gallery on January 24th from 2 to 4 pm.
