Bittern at RSPB Ham Wall this week. Some great views
Do you prefer to be in a group of 10 people, or 3-4? Smaller groups mean we have to charge slightly more, but in return you get undivided attention, individual treatment and you are not herded around in a minibus...
Nick is an expert photographer and teacher - with 30 years experience as a professional photographer and 20 years of working with camera and software companies like Canon, Adobe, Apple, Phase One and Miscrosoft on product development and training, he has proven ability and the detailed knowledge of the craft of photography to help even advanced photographers improve their technique and the presentation of their photographs.
From camera setup to image processing and colour management, everyone will take plenty of knowledge away from these trips, together with a set of beautiful pictures of birds, wildlife and landscapes.
Please see individual pages for holiday dates and prices.
We visit locations across Somerset to see and photograph a wide range of Birds and other Wildlife. Help is always available, if you need it.
We take a relaxed pace to visit locations across the Highlands of Scotland to see and photograph iconic species of Birds and Wildlife and the outstanding landscapes they inhabit.
Join us for the African photography holiday of a lifetime in the tranquil national parks of Uganda, seeing and photographing birds and animals you may have only dreamed of.
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

Glossy Ibis in a paddy field, contre jour, no lens hood. Sometimes mistakes look better than ‘proper’ pictures. Love the atmosphere of this image taken recently in Spain.

Today was wet, then bright. The Stonechats carried on regardless.

Mountain Hares are special and photographing them is a privilege.

Kingfisher! Sometimes the luck is with you - after photographing a strafing Marsh Harrier this exquisite azure gem settled on the piling close by. Well spotted @theurbanbirder

A juvenile Buzzard on a freezing afternoon. Despite their size and reputation, much of a Buzzard’s diet consists of worms and other invertebrates. Join me on a Somerset Photo Safari to photograph this bird and many others.

Penduline Tits in North Somerset. These charming birds, more normally seen in Spain and E Europe are only 10-11.5 cm long and working their way through the Bullrush seeds.

Griffon Vultures have been reintroduced in some parts of Spain to counter losses from diclofenac - this is one bird from a project in the Alicante region.
