Staggeringly beautiful and diverse, the Everglades is the largest remaining subtropical wilderness in the US. It has been designated a Biosphere Reserve, a World Heritage Site, and a Wetland of International Importance in recognition of the significant global impact if it is not protected and restored. The 'Glades is home to an amazing array of wildlife and ecosystems, join us as we explore and photograph this unique and vitally important place, taking you deep into the heart of the Everglades on a one-of-a-kind photography adventure!
- Guided Boat Based Kayak Tour - The kayak transport boat will carry us deep into the Glades, where we will explore via kayak. The 'yaks we will be using are super light and stable, great for beginner paddlers and easy to work out of as photographers. We will take short trips out from the transport, which also provides a convenient nearby "base", allowing you to control how much you want to paddle, jump on board to take a break whenever you want!
- Guided Boat Tour - We will explore areas far off the beaten path, photographing from the boat. This is a perfect opportunity to get close to wildlife and photograph scenery at the heart of the 'Glades.
- Guided "Wet Walk" Swamp Hike. Experience the mystery and wonder of the Everglades first hand on this hike into a cypress strand. We will "wet-walk" on this tour where we will photograph a variety of wildlife, scenery, and rare plants like bromeliads and orchids.
- Sunset Photography - But before we even embark on these tours, we kick off our weekend workshop with an evening photographing the sunset over Chokoloskee Bay.
- Our Digital Workflow Class, "Getting the Best out of Every Shot" - We wrap up our weekend with a comprehensive class on how to get the best results for all the great pictures you took, using Photoshop and Lightroom. Jason covers his complete workflow from organization to preparing files for print, stock, or the web, unveiling tips and techniques to make your workflow smooth and easy, and to get you away from the computer and back out in the field!
"All Inclusive - You Get There, We take care of the Rest!" - The price for this photo workshop includes all of these tours and Jason's and Jim's photography instruction, plus lodging, meals and transportation during the workshop. Six to one student teacher ratio! C'mon - register today!
