Mark Fletcher

Photographing snow leopards and Pallas’s cats in Mongolia

 

The Altai mountain range of western Mongolia is home to a small population of snow leopards that come down to 10,000 ft elevations in the winter to hunt.  Photographing these animals required 7days of living in the mountains to find them.  This talk covers the adventure of finding snow leopards in the mountains as well as Pallas’s cats which are found on the Eastern Mongolian Steppe. 

About the photographer Mark Fletcher:

Nikon Professional Services (NPS) member, keynote speaker Heard Museum Photography Club, published in: Dallas Morning News, Lake Highlands Advocate, AKC Magazine, corporate brochures.  

Mark Fletcher was given a 35mm Pentax camera at the age of 13years old and has been shooting ever since.  First photo work was with a local Virginia newspaper during high school.  In college while getting his engineering degree at Ole Miss, Mark photographed events and parties to help pay for tuition.  Hired by Texas Instruments out of college, Mark worked in the semiconductor field for 37years, retiring in 2025. Mark is now a full-time professional photographer, travelling the world photographing wildlife and sponsoring tours. Mark also photographs dog sports competitions, family portraits, and weddings. Website:  MARK FLETCHER PHOTOGRAPHY - Home
