Gannets in December!

We've finally locked in the dates for our December Gannets workshop: the weekend of December 10-13, 2010. This is essentially the same workshop David ran in January, with landscape and wildlife photography in Australia's only mainland colony of gannets interspersed with instruction in photography and digital-processing techniques.

The workshop is limited to 6 participants, and places are already being filled. So if you're interested, don't wait!

The Southern Ocean: too rough!

This Sunday's pelagic (ocean) photography trip had to be cancelled due to bad weather. Our skipper made the call, and I heartily agree. With a forecast of winds of 20-30 knots, rain, and a 3m swell, an ocean trip in the 48-foot boat would not be fun!

Unfortunately this is always a risk with these one-day boat trips.

Our next scheduled pelagic trip is on the 15th of August, when we'll try again. Some of the photographers who'd booked for this Sunday's trip have rebooked on the August trip (the others got refunds). There are still a few free places on the August trip, so have a think about joining us on the adventure!
