Nature Photography Adventures, carefully planned tours, safaris, and workshops to great natural and cultural destinations, designed for nature photographers by nature photographers
Welcome to NaturePhotographyAdventures.com, a site dedicated to nature photography adventures, workshops and techniques.  Nature photographers Bob Harvey and Diane Kelsay share images and nature photography techniques, guide photographers to exciting and unique natural, cultural, and heritage destinations.

We invite you to explore the site, enjoy the photographs, and explore our nature photography adventure opportunities.  If you'd like to participate in one of our adventures or workshops, we invite you to send us an application.  

Join us in an exciting nature photography adventure and improve your ability to capture the wonders of nature in still images.

Join us this November in Belize and Guatemala as we explore the Secrets of the Maya, photograph rainforests, capture cave images, find birds and monkeys, and work on macros of plants and insects!

December 2012 is thought by some to be the end of the world, according to Mayan Calendars.  We (and most Mayans) don't believe in that, but this is your last chance to join us just before the Mayan Calendar runs out of days.

We have a small group in place - but there is room for you!
