Early morning start at Otmoor, Nr. Oxford. Arrived 5:25am, overnight rain had just stopped and the sky clearing. Turtle doves calling, redshank and snipe active, Glossy Ibis still around but only seen at a distance. Stayed until lunchtime hoping to see the hobbies hunting, only two active with one coming very close overhead. Will need to go back mid-afternoon to try when hopefully there will be more activity.
Six days on a photography workshop with Paul Gallagher, staying at the Argyll Hotel, Bellochantuy.
landscapes, seascapes, infra-red, black & white, tilt & shift, using tripods, graduated and ND filters, big stoppers, Dalmatians, plus great northern divers and seals along the beach & rocks outside the hotel.
