Galapagos slideshow @ NFD - November 8th



I will be giving a slide show on the natural history of and nature photography on the Galapagos Islands at NFD (NaturFotografer i Danmark = an association of nature photographers in Denmark) in Brønshøj on November 8th.

The audience is taken to this magnificent group of islands 1000 km from the coast of South America.
The Galapagos was probably one of the mayor inspirations which led the young Charles Darwin to later formulate his theory on biological evolution.

Today the island group offers unique opportunities to witness evolution and experience wild unspoilt nature and naïve and photogenic animals. The island group is visited by many thousands of tourists every year but strict rules ensure that the impact on the environment is kept to a minimum.
