Tropical forests harbor a far greater number and variety of species than do temperate forests. Biologist/Entomologist
Richard Whitten, based in Selvatura Park in Monteverde, Costa Rica has dedicated a major part of his life to recording this staggering biodiversity. He has been been collecting and exhibiting insects and other Arthropods for over 50 years and has loosely categorized his collection under the headings of
BIG, BEAUTIFUL and the
BIZARRE.
Biophotos.com is a tribute to Richard's vast collection of Natural
History Images (over 300 hours
of Digital Videography/Photography)
utilizing a Canon L-1 Video
Camera, a Sony DSC-S70 Digital
Still Camera (with Zeiss lens),
and a Sony DSR-PD150 (3 CCD)
Digital Video Camera.

A
FINAL NOTE:
Owing
to widespread incorrect references to "Jewels of the Rain
Forest", "Famous Whitten Collection",etc. On
various web sites of tour agencies, hotels, etc, please note
that there are absolutely no exhibitions, connections or otherwise
ligitament references to my name or my exhibitions at any place
other than Selvatura Park in Monteverde, Costa Rica!
Any
other references are incorrect and have caused many problems
for tourists who have been incorrectly directed to these other
locations, for whatever reason!
