Birds of Prey Photography Course




Our recent birds of prey photography course was probably the best location we've used so far. We try to use new locations and different settings to provide different backdrops, whilst keeping everything looking as natural as possible. The setting for August's workshop was an old farm in North Yorkshire with barns, old buildings and gates... and beautiful rural surroundings including rolling green pasture and ripened wheat fields.
It's the perfect place to photograph barn owl and little owl in particular, with lichen covered stone walls and barn windows. We even managed to fly the barn owl through an open window numerous times providing stunning flight shots! The farm should now be one of our main locations for future bird of prey workshops.

  1. Love your little white one flying out... It was indeed a magical moment.
    I had a blast and am sure I want to do more workshops with you...
    The surroundings and the farm land were of the best Yorkshire has to offer to nature lovers... Thanks for giving the course!
