I am honored to have been asked to join four other professional nature photographers (including my friend Bill Lea—who’s writing a book about the Everglades) for a NANPA (North American Nature Photography Association) photo adventure featuring five field trips in Everglades National Park. There will be both morning and evening shoots on Friday and Saturday, and a morning shoot on Sunday, all during the prime light hours. Critiques and Q&A sessions with the pros will be held midday at the hotel. The event will end with a farewell brunch on Sunday. It should be a fun, action-packed long weekend of shooting and image critiques.
