For five incredible Deluxe Atlantic Puffins Galore Workshops, the weather for photographing Atlantic Puffins was nothing short of spectacular. We were treated to a variety of conditions, from cool, windy days that created a thrilling spectacle of puffins swirling effortlessly through the air, to serene, foggy mornings where the water was so still it created a perfect mirror for magical reflections.
Overall, the weather was wonderfully cool and crisp, but we were fortunate enough to avoid the smoke from the devastating wildfires that have plagued so many other areas. One unforgettable moment was watching a magnificent Razorbill preen and stretch, seemingly putting on a show for our cameras. As the fog lifted, a glassy sea was revealed, providing a stunning backdrop to the scene.
More Kudos:
I recently attended Christopher’s Deluxe Puffin Workshop and it exceeded all of my expectations. Christopher;’s instruction was knowledgeable, patient, insightful and tailored to all skill levels. The location was superb with made the learning experience both engaging and enjoyable. The balance between technical instruction and hands-on practice was perfect, allowing me to immediately apply what I learned. I walked away not only with new skills and techniques, but also with a renewed sense of inspiration and confidence in my photography. I highly recommend any of Christopher’s workshops to anyone looking to grow as a photographer or elevate their craft. This is my second workshop with Christopher Dodds, but it will not be my last!
