The Audubon Everglades Photography Group (AEPG) meetings are on the SECOND Thursday of each month. Calendar entries are updated to reflect the upcoming events. Any subsequent changes will be posted on this calendar and announced to members by email. As programs are held and recorded, videos are linked to the calendar program date in case members missed the meeting or want to review in more detail.
This section contains the list of all scheduled AEPG events: programs, critique sessions, field trips, workshops, and photo shares.
Unless indicated otherwise, all programs, critique sessions, workshops, and photo share sessions will be held remotely using ZOOM. Members may log onto the ZOOM session from 6:45pm through 7:00pm for “social time” before the program begins. Field trips will be held when opportunities are identified.

Critique Session: Nature & Macro
Guest Photographer: Carl Seibert (video)
Carl has had a long career in journalism, as a news photographer, project manager, and photo editor. He fell in love with photography as an adolescent photographing school events with his dad’s Leica, which he stills owns.
As an editor, he became known for reverence for the craft, with a laser focus on honing content to its essential meaning. And cropping really tightly!
He continues to shoot and contributes to a wire service. Since the advent of the pandemic, his work has been focused on an ongoing project documenting nature close to home, now quite literally in his own back yard.
Carl evangelizes the importance of metadata to “empower honest people”, on his blog and YouTube channel, where he mixes advocacy on behalf of content creators with a steady stream of how-to content for photographers, web designers, and other content creators. He believes that communicating meta-information about the ownership and content of visuals is essential to protecting the rights of artists and preserving our visual culture.
He lives and works in South Florida with his wife and a furry management team.
