Day 1 - Travel Day & Landscape Photography

We meet at our accommodation close to the area (within 20-30mins by car) where we will be photographing the seals. Once we are all installed and depending on the time and the weather, we may go do a sunset at one of the windmills, lighthouses or other landmarks in the area.

Meals: Dinner

Day 2 - Seals

An early start before sunrise to make sure we are installed and not likely to disturb the seals as we approach. Then we expect to photograph for 2-4 hours depending on many factors including quantity of seals, weather, opportunities, etc

We then return to our lodge for a wholesome brunch. In the evening, depending on everyone's mood, we may either return to the seals or search out one of the many locations for sunsets. We may of course decide to stay indoor and enjoy a rest or a review of our day's images - we are a small intimate group so we can make these decisions as a group.

Meals: Light Breakfast, Brunch & Dinner

Day 3 - Seals & Post-processing

Much the same as yesterday, except that in the evening we will all be entertained by a post-processing workshop of about 2 hours. There is no need to bring your own computer and try to follow along as a recording of the session will be made and distributed to everyone. That way, you can go through everything in your own time. You may however want to bring your PC along to review and download your images and to take advantage of the free wi-fi (if available)

Meals: Light Breakfast, Brunch & Dinner

Day 4 - Seals & Group Breakfast

We have one final morning with the seals and after our shoot we can all make our way home. Those wishing to stay on for breakfast are welcome to join in at Poppylands 1940s Tearoom (in Horsey) who make an excellent breakfast and are a themed tearoom - an instant favourite for those that visit. Breakfast is included and the bill will be settled by your guide.

Meals: Full Breakfast

Tuition, Field Craft, Techniques

Besides the one scheduled editing sessions on day 3, there will be continuous tips and advice on Photography, Lightroom, Photoshop and Field Craft and we will also learn about the animals we encounter from our host. I encourage everyone to listen and learn during the tuition sessions and a laptop isn't essential, as the host will have their own, meaning you can make the most of this opportunity whilst still keeping your luggage light. A recording of what is covered during these sessions, will be made available after the trip.
