“Moments in Nature”

The Environmental Awareness Group (EAG), in conjunction with the MOMENT is CAPTURED photography continues in second leg of a monthly hiking tour around Antigua to combine two closely-related endeavours: nature and photography. The purpose of the hikes is to bring attention to Antigua's diverse ecology, to encourage physical activity among residents, to highlight the work of the EAG, and to give amateur and professional photographers the opportunity to explore their cameras in a natural environment.  Individuals should bring their own cameras, preferably DSLR (manually adjustable), however, cameras are not absolutely essential since the event is primarily a nature hike.  

This Sunday’s hike began at 7:30 a.m. in Christian Valley, at the main gate just outside the Christian Valley Agricultural Station (from town, turn left at the Christian Valley sign just south of Jennings, and drive until the road ends).  Antigua is home to one major waterfall and its location is unknown to many citizens.
