A note from Barbara,
“Hello, I am Barbara Bowen of B A Bowen Photography.  I have a passion for nature photography and exploring the outdoors. I enjoy bringing you high quality photos of my adventures from the most pristine places of Natural Florida and other places I explore. Watch my wildlife and nature encounters unfold as I kayak down the crystal clear waters of Florida’s natural springs or hike down an “off the beaten path trail that has been untouched by human development. I enjoy Florida wildlife, wildflowers, and natural scenes at their best and I certainly enjoy showcasing them for you!”
