Costa Rica Photography Adventure with Nature Photography Adventures

February 13-23, 2014 ----- Almost Full

Join Nature Photography Adventures for an exciting photography adventure in Costa Rica's rainforests and Pacific Coast.

What should a Costa Rica Nature Photography Adventure include?

 

Rainforests and Cloud Forests

Birds

Canopy Photography

Monkeys

Tropical Beaches

Hummingbirds

We have woven together a set of photographic opportunities and Costa Rican experiences that will put you in the right place at the right time to produce great images - and give you a set of personal experiences guaranteed to make you fall in love with this beautiful country. You will come home with a great collection of images and a better understanding of the diverse ecosystems and fascinating culture of Costa Rica.

 

Our explorations will concentrate on rainforests, cloud forests, and coastal mangrove forests of the Pacific side of Costa Rica. We'll visit Monteverde and some of the other "big name" parks - but we'll also explore some of the less traveled spots in Costa Rica in our quest for exciting images.

We will explore rainforests and cloud forests on amazing ground trails, from stable suspended walkways high in the canopy, and (optionally) by zipline.

We'll find rainforest birds (Costa Rica has over twice the species of continental United States), frogs, butterflies, leaf cutter ants, sloths and monkeys.

We'll photograph the exciting designs and patterns of the rainforest from both the ground and the canopy! And we'll create artful images of waterfalls surrounded by beautiful forests.

We'll explore the coastal mangrove forests by both power boat and kayak, creating images of exciting birds, monkeys, crabs, caimans, iguanas and crocodiles. The patterns of the coastal mangrove forests, themselves, are conducive to great art.

We'll make a foray up into an idyllic valley where some of the best coffee in the world is grown. They will just be beginning the coffee harvest, picking plump red coffee berries and hauling them to small mills where they are prepared for shipment around the world. We'll get to pick berries, photograph and learn the process, and sample some of the best coffee you can imagine. Yes, you can bring some home!
While we are up in the mountains we'll visit an exquisite cloud forest - and have some of our best opportunties to photograph hummingbirds.

We have designed this adventure for a small group (5-10 photographers). We've picked lodgings that put us close to the action - you should be able to step out your door in each place and capture great images!

This is a great adventure for your non-photographer traveling partner to enjoy. We'll have wonderful experiences they can "get into" - and the photography pace of this adventure won't cause them to grit their teeth!
