SUMMARY:Isle of May - Puffins 01-06-26
DESCRIPTION:Isle of May – Puffins \nLocation: Anstruther \nJoin me for some puffin therapy!! \nThe Isle of May is a remarkable island which lies only 5 miles off the Fife coast and is an important National Nature Reserve owned and run by NatureScot (SNH) and is open for visitors from the beginning of April until the end of September\, this is truly a beautiful Island\, peaceful with stunning views everywhere. \nNatureScot (SNH) have rangers stationed on the Isle of May during this time to make our visit more enjoyable and informative\, they will greet you on the pier when you arrive\, give a short talk on the latest information concerning the wildlife and they will also patrol the island during your visit. Isle of May is home to an incredible array of wildlife\, up to 200\,000 seabirds can nest on the May\, which can include 100\,000 Puffins\, there are also large colonies of Guillemots\, Razorbills\, Kittiwakes and Shags (best time for Puffins is from April to end of July ) also about 300 seals live all year round on Isle of May. Porpoise and Dolphin and the odd whale can be seen\, you just have to be on the trip on the right day and be a bit lucky. \nThe duration of our time on the island depends very much on the tides. But is usually between 2 and 3 hours. During our visit we will look to capture images of the incredible and iconic puffins. We will have a set shot list that we will try to achieve in our short time on the island with the stand out shots being the puffins with sand eels and fish in their beaks. \nThe exact trip start and end timings will be given at the time of booking. The time on the island will only be known on the day of the trip. \nAs with all my workshops I will be on hand to give advice on settings and various different shots that can be achieved. The group will be a maximum of 4 people so there will be plenty of opportunities to work with everyone one on one if required. \nThe price includes the boat booking and photographic guiding throughout. \nThe price does not include accommodation. It also excludes all meals.

SUMMARY:Wildlife Photography for Beginners 03-06-26
DESCRIPTION:Beginners Wildlife Photography Workshop \nLocation: Glasgow \nMy popular beginner’s wildlife photography workshop is designed for people who are new to wildlife photography and for those people who just want to understand how their camera works and how they can maximise the equipment that they have to get better images. \nMany people have attended this workshop with NO photography knowledge and often attendees have basic camera equipment. \nThroughout the beginners wildlife photography workshop I will set your camera up with you to ensure that you are simplifying the camera settings as much as possible and making you comfortable with adjusting minimum settings to get maximum results. \nThe focus of the workshop is on capturing images of common species in a different way\, so we will be photographing swans\, ducks and other water birds. I will also explain a little about the behaviour of the birds so that you can look for specific shots. \nBy the end of the workshop you will be confident in using your camera and adjusting settings to achieve the results that you want. \nCourse Contents\n• Camera Set Up\n• Understanding Exposure\n• Focus Modes\n• White Balance\n• Composition\n• Exposure Compensation
