New Year, New Premises
14 February 2010
Islandscape Photography has acquired new premises at Taigh Solais in Tobermory. Taigh Solais (which means 'the lighthouse' in Gaelic) is situated on the waterfront and belongs to the Tobermory Harbour Association. Opened by the Princess Royal in 2008, Taigh Solais is not only home to the local HM Coastguard rescue station and provides facilities for visiting yachts at the nearby pontoon, but it also boasts a suite of offices and a circular board room with panoramic views. The new Islandscape Photography studio will provide space for tutorials as well as for feedback sessions. There will be computer and printing facilities available as well as 'touchdown' space for those guests with their own laptops or notebooks (or perhaps even iPads in due course). It will also provide a refuge from any sustained inclement weather, otherwise known as 'rain'. Fitting out is underway and a dram or two will be raised to toast its opening in early March.
