Vacationing in Costa Rica
France Boutilier
This presentation is predominantly dealing with Northern Costa Rica in the Guanacaste province, showing beaches, waterfalls, and wildlife. We will also touch on our experiences getting around the country, the food and web sites to make your travels safe and informative.
About France:
France’s passion is nature photography, from wildlife to scenic and dabbling in macro images as well. When travelling to different areas, like Hawaii, Portugal and Costa Rica to name a few, she enjoys capturing their unique beauty, but always seems to gravitate to birds of the area.
France enjoys the magic of seeing wildlife in its natural habitat and finds it a great way to unwind from life’s chaos. She enjoys her peaceful surroundings in anticipation of capturing the beauty around her.
Being a member of the Nova Scotia Photo Guild has provided companionship with fellow photographers with a view of learning new techniques from the expertise of more advanced photographers.

Travelling in Japan
Peter Steeper
During my trip to Japan, I visited Kyoto, Kanazawa, Kobe, the Kumano Kodo and the Star Wars Celebration in Tokyo. It was peak cherry blossom season which is enjoyed by the Japanese and people from many other countries. My visit included ancient temples and the modern architecture of the Osaka Expo. I tried everything from Kobe Beef to ramen at hole in the wall restaurants. Japan is a country of the traditional and the most modern.
Bio:
Peter has been a photographer for 25 years and organized many field trips and workshops for the clubs in Nova Scotia. He has been published in several magazines and participated in gallery shows. Since retirement he has travelled to many places in Europe and North America. He also enjoys being a maker and woodworker. He recently won SmallRig’s DreamRig 2023 Best Product Design.
