My photo tour company here in Costa Rica, Foto Verde Tours, has donated $1000 for a photo trip of choice to The International Ecotourism Society’s (TIES) new Ecodestination Auction for 2009. As a member of TIES, Foto Verde Tours believes strongly in ecotourism — tourism that simultaneously benefit both the environment and local communities — and see nature photography as a logical contributor in this effort. If you are interested in supporting the work of TIES while also gaining some credit toward a great Costa Rica photo safari, please visit the TIES auction page.
To learn more about TIES, visit their main website.
And be sure to check out the Foto Verde Tours site for some upcoming trip options.
Cheers,
Greg
