Testimonials
Our trips are built on a passion for birds, photography and a great deal of hard work, to ensure the best possible experience. Our guests recognise this and we've had some lovely feedback. Here is just some that we have received:
I love taking photos of wildlife. Have done for many years but felt I needed to learn a bit more about getting a better photo. This trip really lived up to the expectations.
The tuition was delivered expertly by Nick who has an obvious passion for photography, wildlife and the environment. Within a few hours my photography had improved immensely
What I really enjoyed about the course was the small group. You got a lot more attention and help than what you would have had in a big group.
Great week of high quality photography mentoring from Nick Wilcox-Brown

Fulmars
23.06.2021
Breeding Fulmars on the Moray coast of Scotland.
Not the easiest bird to photograph in flight as they are fast and agile. Captured with an EOS R6 camera with the RF800mm f/11 IS lens
Gannets
18.06.2021
The elegance of a Gannet in flight is hard to beat.
After a week spent filming them for Springwatch a few years back, the Gannet is one of my favourite birds.
This bird was part of a large breeding colony on the Scottish coast, one of our stops on the WildPhotographer tour of the Scottish highlands. The sight, sound, and the smell, were unforgettable.
Breeding Gannets

So many pictures of Gannets, which to chose?
Taken after my guests had headed home, a day day with Gannets, Fulmars and Guillemots was a relaxing treat and a chance to properly try out @canonuk ‘s latest RF100-500mm L series zoom.
