PLEASE NOTE

Florida Nature Blog

 

Florida Nature is is a personal blog created by Alice Mary Herden.

“As a nature photographer, I feel it is important to learn as much as you can about what you are photographing. Understanding their species, habitat, behavior, characteristics, and other helpful information creates a better connection between you and them and how you photograph.

Beginning in August of 2018, my goal is to explore Florida’s natural and beautiful locations and to share with you information about the variety of species I encounter on a personal and photographic level.”
