This adventure will take place at one of the most natural, photo-rich environments on earth. During this photo workshop we will visit several of the Falkland Islands via small aircraft.  “The Neck”, known as the crown jewel of the Falklands, will be one of our featured locations. There is a small colony of King Penguins, Gentoo, Magellanic and Rockhopper penguins as well as a large colony of Black-browed Albatross. During our time in the Falklands, we will also take a day trip out to a huge colony of King Penguins.  On our list of stops will be Sea Lion; Sea Lion Island is the only location in the Falklands where killer whale pods routinely patrol.  In addition to these whale pods it is the best place to see and photograph Elephant Seal and Sea Lions. Next on our top locations will be Bleaker Island, notably, the best place in the Falklands to capture Gentoo penguins shooting out of the surf.  Also, at Bleaker we will spend time at one of the largest Imperial Cormorant (aka Blue-eyed Shag) colonies with over 8,000 nesting pair.

*Some tour leaders boast loads of different islands but that just means you spend time packing-unpacking, waiting for flights and traveling, I have minimized this, in an effort to maximize our photo time in-the-field at the very best locations that the Falklands has to offer.

** Our accommodations on most of the islands is very nice, similar to a hotel. However, at the “Neck” there is only one shipping container that has been transformed into an accommodation housing 8 people-with a kitchen/living room combo, 2 bedrooms with 4 bunkbeds. One bathroom. It is in a very remote location, that happens to be in one of the very best wildlife locations on earth. During our 4 nights at the “Neck” we will have prepared meals brought in from a hotel in Stanley and we can also prepare some of our own meals.
