Become a World-Class Wildlife and Nature Photographer with Aurora Expeditions
Photography helps capture the beauty of the world that can tell a visual story just from a series of images. In celebration of National Photography Day on August 19, Aurora Expeditions invites guests to travel to the ‘White Continent’ aboard the Greg Mortimer or Sylvia Earle (debuting in November), where they will leave with more than just memories.
Aurora Expeditions is an award-winning, Australian owned expedition company designed for global discovery, with life changing experiences to Antarctica.
