Craft Safety Naturalist and placement for photography

Christine_W, Nov 2021

Our Naturalist Master Captain took me and my wife on the morning before sunrise to about noon out on the water. I’m a photographer I have been on many many Naturalist tours Especially in Hawaiian Island since my timeshare is there I had the fortune there to go with one one the people that re-edit the Tory bird and an expert in like spiders. This Naturalist in The Everglades knew everything about the habitat and nesting and habits of birds which was my primary focus. He knew all about the Everglades and trees shrubs water and because I studied Oceanography and setup a weather Dept with Weather expert it was nice to also talk weather patterns and organisms in the Everglades. It was wonderful and absolutely informative. So it was just my wife and I and the Master Captain Naturalist. He did everything necessary so I got my Camera Shots with various Lenses Safety on the craft was always his overriding focus next came my photography and our questions and my wife’s love for bird watching and her questions environment of the Everglades.

Incredible photo journey through the Everglades

Mike_B, Sep 2021

This excursion was so beautiful, the sunrise over the treetops, beautiful birds feeding and flying everywhere capped off by the dolphin sitings. The silence was so wonderful after the engine was shut off all we heard was the natural sounds of nature in its purest form. I never imagined the Everglades to be so peaceful and beautiful. Not to mention the photo oops around every turn!!
