Ranches are focus of Fielder book | Greeley Tribune
John Fielder, famed Colorado nature photographer, will talk about his latest project and book, “Ranches of Colorado,” which features a Weld County ranch, at Colorado State University next week.
Fielder will be in the north ballroom of the Lory Student Center at CSU at 6 p.m. Nov. 20. A portion of proceeds from the event will support the work of the Legacy Land Trust, a nonprofit land conservation organization in northern Colorado.
The book is a collaboration between Fielder, Colorado Open Lands, and the Colorado Cattlemen's Agricultural Land Trust to feature the landscapes of 50 working ranches across Colorado. In addition to capturing the beauty and rustic western heritage of these ranches, the book also asserts the need to protect these important and dwindling pieces of Colorado's history. Fielder will highlight his book in a multimedia presentation.
One of the ranches featured in the book Legacy Land Trust has helped protect is the Eagle Rock Ranch in the Chalk Bluffs area of northern Weld.
Suggested donations for admission are $7.50 and $5 for CSU students.
Fielder will be signing copies of “Ranches of Colorado” along with past works during the event, which is sponsored by Larimer County Open Lands, city of Fort Collins Natural Areas, and the Center for Collaborative Conservation.
