Description
The Everglades Photography Tour is an invitation to see one of the world’s most biodiverse wetlands through the lens of patience, artistry, and discovery. Led by local naturalists and experienced photographers, this guided journey reveals the Everglades as both a subject and a story. Your adventure begins at sunrise, when golden light spills over the River of Grass. With tripod ready, capture egrets taking flight and mist rising from the water as guides share expert tips on exposure and composition. Next, step aboard a stable pole boat to shoot undisturbed wildlife and learn about Gladesmen heritage. For those choosing the full-day option, explore additional sites like Shark Valley and Mahogany Hammock for afternoon light and flamingo colors. More than a class, this is an immersive art and nature experience — you’ll leave with remarkable images and a renewed connection to the Everglades as a living canvas of light and life.
