Photography Cruise in conjunction with Elizabeth G Charters, 26 June - 2 July 2010

In 2010, we will be running a seven day/six night photography cruise on the Elizabeth G to Skye and the Small Isles. Elizabeth G was designed and built for search and rescue operations by the Norwegian Society for Sea Rescue (NSSR), so she’s tough and very seaworthy. Following a major refit and conversion in 2005, Elizabeth G now provides superb accommodation for up to 12 guests. She also boasts great food, a highly experienced skipper, and a friendly and knowledgeable crew. During the cruise, we will explore the islands of Skye, Eigg, Rum, Canna and Muck, all of which offer a wealth of photographic opportunities and experiences. You will learn skills such as composition, fieldcraft, the use of light and filtration and how to take your photography to the next level through a combination of on board tutorials and in the field tuition. Whilst our primary focus will be on landscape photography, you will also have the opportunity to see the diverse bird and marine life of the area, including minke whales, basking sharks and shearwaters. Our day to day itinerary will be determined by the prevailing weather and tidal conditions but in addition to the main islands, we also hope to explore the lighthouse island of Oigh-Sgeir to the south west of Canna as well as the island of Soay, where Gavin Maxwell, author of Ring of Bright Water, established a shark fishery. The cruise is guaranteed to run for a minimum of 8 guests and is priced at £975 per person inclusive of accommodation and all meals.
