Nothing quite prepares you for the experience of being surrounded by millions of monarch butterflies in the oyamel fir forests of Mexico’s Central Highlands. It’s a brilliant spectacle -- but one that can be difficult to capture on camera! Join Expedition Leader and professional photographer Charlie Reinertsen on a photographic journey to the monarchs’ wintering grounds, and learn his tips for photographing this endangered species in the wild. He also offers advice on what camera gear to pack and presents his favorite photos from Nat Hab’s journey into the Kingdom of the Monarchs.
