Description
With exclusive and privileged access to the raptors, we will have plenty of time to photograph stunning portrait images of the birds in natural settings (including thatch roofing, gravestones, tree hollows, mossy stones and branches) before moving on to capture some amazing and imaginative action shots of birds in flight. We guarantee, you’ll get images you never imagined possible.
Throughout the day, your course leader will provide best advice on capturing all the action, including two formal mini-tutorials in camera techniques - in particular, how to get the best out of your camera’s AF systems to capture stunning action shots of the birds in flight.
