Enjoy a three-day island extravaganza off the Northumberland coast on my home ground. We'll be head to head with Puffins, toe to toe with Terns, eye to eye with Shags and many, many other close encounters, as we get up close and personal with the thousands of seabirds at one of Britain's foremost wildlife spectacles. I've been visiting the islands since boyhood (over 40yrs since my first trip!) and can find the best places to maximise your visit and chances of the shots you want to achieve. We are based in very comfortable hotel accommodation on the Northumberland Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. 2013 Tour Dates: Arrive Sunday June 23rd - Depart June 27th - Activities from evening of day one until early morning of departure ** TOUR NOW FULL ** Price of £755 inc: NB: Boat trips and landings subject to weather conditions - refunds for cost of boat trips if not available - alternative mainland locations if boat trips fail to go ahead.

Winter Wildlife - February 8th - 14th 2014 "The winter months are undoubtedly the best time of the year for wildlife photography in the Scottish Highlands. From our spectacular lodge in the heart of the Cairngorms National Park, we like to think that we offer the very best in photographic opportunities from red squirrels on our doorstep to red deer set in a magnificent Highland wilderness - all against the backdrop of snow-capped hills, primeval forests and wild moorland. Close to our base, we maintain several feeding stations for red squirrels where these charismatic icons of the pine forest can be photographed running, jumping and simply posing against a range of backdrops. Also nearby we have carefully engineered settings and hides for crested tits and other birds of the northern forests. Groups in the past have been lucky enough to photograph capercaillie and even Scottish wildcat – you just never know!"with Richard Peters Details HERE Winter Wildlife - February 15th - 21st 2014 "The winter months are undoubtedly the best time of the year for wildlife photography in the Scottish Highlands.

You will shoot puffin portraits, puffins in flight, puffin behaviour and puffin interaction. It’s fair to say that you should only sign up for this tour if you like puffins! The species list is not as extensive as many of our tours but the photographic possibilities are endless and if this is a species you’ve always wanted to photograph seriously, this is the tour for you."

OTHER ROB JORDAN PHOTOURS UNDER DEVELOPMENT NEW - Northern Icons Dates - details to be arranged The Angel of the North, Hadrian's Wall, the Tyne Bridges, Bamburgh & Dunstanburgh Castles - visually stimulating images that define a region. This tour concentrates on creating imagery of these iconic landmarks and others - working sometimes at the extremes of day and light as well as the intimacy of the sometimes unseen 'inner' landscape detail. NEW - Wet & Wild Waterfall Weekends Dates - details to be arranged Short-breaks exploring a variety of large, small and sometimes hidden waterfalls found throughout the North-East of England. Photography will concentrate on defining the essence of each location, creating imagery that will be both a literal and impressionistic interpretation of place. NEW - Coast & Castles Dates - details to be arranged Northumberland has more castles than any other county in England and one of the most inspiring natural coastlines to be found anywhere. The tours concentrate on the wild, windswept landscapes created by both nature and the hand of man, particularly at the fringes of day and light. NEW - 'Hide & Seek'
Dates - details to be arranged
Where we'll use 'hides' for some of our photography and 'seek' other images from the field at various sites and locations throughout the region.
