20 Wildlife Photography Holidays Ideal For Those With Basic Technical Photography Skills
Some trips work because the conditions are forgiving. Subjects are predictable, light is kind, distances are manageable, & encounters repeat. These holidays allow photographers to focus on seeing wildlife well, rather than reacting under pressure.
You should be comfortable with
- Aperture, shutter speed, & ISO basics
- Simple autofocus modes
- Hand-holding a telephoto lens
Typical scenarios
- Predictable birds in flight
- Soft, even light
- Plenty of time to adjust & refine
NaturesLens examples
- Atlantic Puffins of Fair Isle
- Dalmatian Pelicans of Lake Kerkini
- Costa Rica Essential Wildlife Photography
Ideal for building confidence or enjoying strong results without technical pressure.
A lot of our trips are graded basic for photographic ability & familiarity, these are the trips when the situation unfolds slowly & you have time to consider different settings & approaches, we have graded other trips as being Intermediate or Advanced.
