Chequered Skipper Photography

Photography holidays in Bulgaria

The Chequered Skipper is one of the small, easily overlooked butterflies that rewards patience and a good macro setup far more than a long lens, and NaturesLens builds time into its holidays for photographers to work slowly around suitable habitat rather than chase after individuals. Getting a clean, well-lit macro shot of this species means understanding where it likes to settle, and our guides are on hand to help you find and approach it without causing disturbance.
