For the last few years, June & July have seen NaturesLens run 3 night photography holidays to capture images of the Skomer Puffins, & 2017 is no different!
It is almost time – two weeks out – for the first of our annual visits to capture images of Skomer’s Puffins – for several years now, we have taken large groups with multiple guides to the island, the first trip of 2017 is being led by myself & Sean Weekly, the second by Sean Weekly & Kevin Morgans. That means that the weekend after next will be ‘cooking time’, there should be plenty of warming food for the evening meals, some cakes & we might slip the odd box of wine in.
As for the timetable for the weekend, as with all these events, we keep it flexible, the guests have joined us to photograph Skomer’s Puffins foremost, so food times & social activities will be arranged around the light. On that note, if you have specific guidance that you want or need, perhaps the sunset images that Sean achieves; or in-flight imagery – all you have to do is ask.
I know that Sean is as excited as I am for the visit to Skomer, & we both look forward to welcoming our clients to the trip, some, guests are repeat clients of NaturesLens, some are repeat clients of our Skomer’s Puffins Photography Holiday; one thing that they can all be assured of is a great time on the island.
And those visiting in July, your trip will also be excellent, Kevin who is co-leading that trip is a bit of a puffin aficionado, he will bring a wealth of experience to the trip – & he will have just returned from our Puffins of Fair Isle Photography Holiday – so again, feel free to quiz him on any aspect of photography or his tales of Fair Isle.
The photos on this blog post were kindly contributed by Bob & Julie Deans, from a selection of images captured during the 2016 trip, as is normal, we will invite all the participants of the 2017 Puffin Photography Holidays to contribute images to appear on the NaturesLens blog.
