Photo Tour Guide, Nature Photographer & Photo Workshop Instructor Bob Maynard founded Colorado Plateau Photo Tours in 2008.  As a resident of Boulder, Colorado, the original business plan was to offer guide services for photographers only in Rocky Mountain National Park.  In the years since, he has held federal permits in sixteen national parks, national monuments, or BLM areas and has led workshops in 9 states.  Nearly one thousand photographers have used his services.  He and his wife, Cindy, have published two books, A Photographer’s Guide to Colorado’s National Parks and Monuments, and Ancient Skies Through Ancient Eyes, about night photography in the American desert southwest.  He has given presentations to camera clubs in Colorado, Utah, New Mexico, Illinois, and Arizona.  His photography of the American desert southwest has been exhibited in the Edge of Cedars Museum (2013 and 2016) and the Utah State University Eastern Prehistoric Museum (2018) as well as many galleries throughout Colorado and Utah.  He was Chairman of the Louisville National Juried Photography Show for four years.  He has received over two thousand photo credits.
