If you've ever wanted to take a walk in the clouds, then let this be your chance! Journey with me through one of the most magnificent reserves in the region and discover what it takes to get good pictures without being a professional.
During this trip you will
• find out why the cloud forest is my favorite ecosystem
• enjoy spectacular views
• appreciate the small things that often go unnoticed
• learn how to spot birds & other animals
• discover tips & tricks for getting the right shot
• learn the basics of good nature photography, including composition, lighting, camera settings & more
If you have a point and shoot camera I will be happy to show you how to get professional looking shots using your own camera, but if you would like to have the opportunity to shoot with a digital SLR, I will bring an extra one along (lenses included) for you to use.
Includes: hotel pick-up & drop-off, private transport & driver, personal guide (aka me), entrance fee to the reserve, loan of digital SLR camera & 200/300mm lens (1 per group to share), binoculars, bird guides
Does not include: price of lunch & snacks
Please note that the hike itself lasts about 5 hours and can be considered strenuous for some. Although we will make our way through the reserve at a comfortable pace, you do need to be considered healthy and in good shape. Horses can be arranged at an extra cost to finish off the second half of the trail.
I was born in South Africa, studied in the US and now I live in Bogotá, Colombia, where I own and operate a small guesthouse and manage an NGO that aims to connect volunteers with communities throughout the region. My passion for Colombia and its people began during the time I lived in Houston - salsa dancing, eating empanadas with friends and attending some of the best Colombian festivals, parties & cultural events the city had to offer. After finishing my studies in both hospitality & international development, I decided to move to Colombia with my fiancé to start a new life. So here I am. Living in Bogotá's historic district, taking every opportunity available to travel around and explore more of this beautiful country. I am also a photographer, which is why I specialize in photography tours of the region surrounding Bogotá. From iphones to point and shoots and digital SLRs, I can show you how to take great pictures with your own camera! Full profile ⋅ Leave a Review
