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.

 

We're off to Costa Rica in early December 2012 to explore rainforest, cloud forests, estuaries, coffee farms, and world renowned wetlands in search of great compositions!  We will get into the rainforest canopy on stable and photography-friendly trails.

We have totally designed our Costa Rica adventure to focus on opportunities on the Pacific facing slopes and shorelines!  The new design will put you paddling amongst mangroves and building compositions with wild scarlet macaws! 

Check out our Costa Rica Adventure details and Image Gallery
