These fungi are famous for glowing in the dark with a cool beautiful green glow. Under the right conditions they have the potential to transform the entire forest floor into a glowing spectacle which few eyes have seen. Our main objective on this expedition would be to find and photograph these glowing forest floors in the dark. The forest is also a heaven for exotic reptiles and is also abound with unlimited opportunities for macros.<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div style=\"color: #222222; text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"color: #222222; text-align: justify;\">If you are tired of the mundane and are like us, adventurous and fearless, then this expedition is for you, where shooting in pouring rain and pitch darkness is the norm <a class=\"ed\" href=\"http:\/\/iut.univ-ndere.cm\/dep-thermique\/?p=6119\">Simply Pie download<\/a>. We are motivated by extreme challenges and believe you would be too. You will be guided by a seasoned naturalist from Mhadei national park and 2 of our LW staff to help you identify and shooting these amazing fungi. Over the three nights you will learn about the challenges involved in making images in the rain and in dark conditions.
