    The July 1906 NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC published wildlife photographs by Shiras. Grosvenor printed 74 of Shiras’s photographs accompanied by only a brief text, devoting nearly the entire issue to George 3d, a proportion unheard of in its day.

    In the mid-1880s, Shiras took up the hobby of photography and in 1886 took to camp at Whitefish Lake a five-by-seven landscape camera with a single lens and slow film plate, which required the photographer to open and close the lens by hand. McCommons describes this instrument with understatement as “a simple but clumsy mechanism.”

    Shiras grew up hunting and enjoying the outdoors before he began turning his focus to photography. After some experimentation, he developed his "camera traps" that were remotely tripped by an animal, triggering a chemical explosion for flash and a snap of the camera. This resulted in some of his most famous photos.

    Shiras was by no means a wonderful printer and often relied on the National Geographic Society to do his printing for him. He was more documentary in his approach, as he and his assistant John Hammer are the folks who literally invented nighttime flash photography in the 19th century. He photographed wild lands and wild life at night.

    When he began photographing in 1899, he took inspiration from a hunting technique used by Ojibwa tribes called jacklighting. He would place a kerosene lamp at the front tip of a boat, while he sat quietly in the bow. The light would catch the gaze of animals who happened to pass by, leading them to pause momentarily in a captivated trance.
