Very frustrating owl workshop the other evening, we could hear them but no sign of them near us, Erik and Sally were great and very understanding, but i think my face speaks volumes !!!

I went down to see the Kingfishers yesterday as i was concerned that all the heavy rain we had last week may have possibly washed the nest away, thankfully they are both fine and very busy.

Andrew and John on their workshop, where we spent 3hrs working on various aspects of night photography. The first 2 hrs were spent looking at iso settings, hyperfocal distance, white balance and selective focusing. We also worked on long exposures and the effect that has on the final image. It was a pleasure to spend the time with them and a breath of fresh air to see how passionate they are as amature photographers on how much attention to detail was applied to their photographs. Well done guys and i hope to see you on another wildscene photography workshop.

My Kingfisher workshop is going down very well, these stunning birds simply blow me away every time i photograph them. Please note that this workshop is limited to 3 photographers as this bird likes privacy and spooks very easily, the small number of photographers allows us to get into place and stay hidden.

Looking forward to my Edinburgh by night workshop at the bridges tomorrow, fingers crossed that we get a decent sky !!!!

Looking forward to John & Andrews Edinburgh by night workshop at the bridges, lets hope we get decent weather.

I captured this stunning Kingfisher on one of my workshops the other day, it can be quite a challenge to find where they are sometimes but it pays to persevere.

The rain didn't put us off on my last Red Squirrel workshop, some cracking images were taken on the day. Thanks to Tony and Erik for their company, i had a great time with you both. Michael.

Preparations got under way this morning as i kept an eye on a fox den which should have babies in the next few weeks, once they are out i should get some cracking images of these amazing animals.

I had a great time on a 1 to 1 red squirrel workshop with Allan, yesterday, great company on the day sir, thanks you. Looking forward to seeing an image from your day. Michael.
