This
workshop has been completed.
The Everglades system is unique, not just in Florida,
not just in North America, but it is unique, in
that there is not another ecosystem like it in the
world. So unique and important is the Everglades
that it has been designated an International Biosphere
Reserve, a World Heritage Site and a Ramsar Wetland
of International Importance.
Come explore, learn and photograph this one of
a kind ecosystem with a Florida native, Photographer
and Master Naturalist,
James Shadle.
The Western Everglades Photography Workshop/Tour
will cover the NW area of this system.
Learn how the “River of Grass”, the
Big Cypress Swamp, Fakahatchee Strand and Florida
Bay, each a system unto themselves, act as a single
impressive ecosystem.
 We
will visit Shark Valley in the National Park, tour
the famous Loop Road, explore The Fakahatchee Strand
and wet walk in the Big Cypress Swamp.
