Looking to take your creative expression to the next level? Creative Vision Photo Workshops are designed to challenge you to reach new heights with your nature photography. Join Creative Vision instructorsRichard Bernabe and Ian Plant on an intensive, multi-day field instructional workshop that will help you create photographs you've always dreamed of making! The Destination The Tambopata National Reserve is a 275,000 hectare conservation unit created by the Peruvian government in 1990 to protect the watersheds of the Tambopata and Candamo rivers. It is adjacent to the huge 1 million hectare Bahuaja Sonene National Park. Both conservation units protect some of the last untouched lowland and premontane tropical humid forests in the Amazon. This Connecticut-sized area of pristine forest contains 600 bird species, 32 parrot species (10% of the world's total), 200 mammal species, 1200 butterfly species and over 10,000 species of vascular plants. Within Tambopata we will visit and stay in two lodges – Posada Amazonas and the Tambopata Research Center. They are a small part of the network of organizations and communities that are attempting to protect this amazing wilderness.

Hikes will typically be easy to moderate in their level of difficulty, although decent physical fitness will certainly facilitate your enjoyment of this workshop.
