Diehl - 14" W X 20" H. Walter J. Diehl is an avid world traveler & amateur photographer. His photography provides a glimpse into locations that he has been privileged to visit and hopefully inspires others to experience the beauty of new cultures and places on their own. Diehl probably breaks most ‘rules’ of travel photography. His travel habits rarely allow him to sit in one place very long or take advantage of the best light for favored subjects. He is a traveler first who tries to take the most inspiring photographs that he can under existing conditions. Depending on the trip, he may focus on wildlife, architecture, and/or culture. His photograph “Kittiwakes at the Glacier” won 1st prize in photography at the 2012 SAAC Cotton District Arts Festival, and “North Pole or Bust” was a finalist in the 2012 National Geographic Expedition Photography contest. Seventeen photographs were finalists in the 2018 Africa Adventure Company Photography Contest, and “Baby Elephant with an Attitude” won 3rd place in its category. Most recently, “Nanuk Polar Bear Lodge” won 3rd place in its category in the 2019 Churchill Wild Photography Contest. Walter enjoys the reactions of people viewing his photographs. In an admittedly selfish sense, their reactions allow him to enjoy his travels all over again. But only for a while, because now he is already thinking about how to photograph his next trip.
Walter was born in Nashville, TN. He earned the B.S. in Biology from the College of William and Mary, and the M.A. and Ph.D. in Biology from the University of South Florida. Walter is Professor Emeritus of Biological Sciences and Associate Dean Emeritus of Arts & Sciences at Mississippi State University.
