This course is quite intensive but all the walks are on flat grounds so just a reasonable level of fitness will be required, our walks will be no longer than 15 min long. Our aim is for you to leave the course with a much better knowledge and understanding of the subject but also with a great experience that will stay with you for the rest of your life. And most importantly, with a few very good images that you will be proud of.

Dramatic geological forces, combined with numerous ice ages and lately weather forces
such as wind and rain, have all contributed in the creation of a chain of islands on the
north west of Scotland known as Outer Hebrides or Western isles. This chain of islands
stretches for more than 100 miles and is always in the mercy of the Atlantic Ocean.
Here, we will concentrate on the central part of this chain, the part that includes the isles
of Berneray, north Uist, Benbecula and south Uist. All these islands are connected with
causeways.
Boggy moors and craggy hills rule the east side of these islands and make access simply
impossible in parts. In fact, it’s hard to tell whether the moorland is sprinkled with lochs or
the sea is dotted with islands. On a sunny day, the landscape is truly sparkling.
On the other hand, the west side is dominated by a sandy coastline and machair (the
fertile coastal grassland bordering the sand dunes). The main road runs down the middle
of this chain of islands from Lochmaddy to Lochboisdale.
North and south Uist both have nature reserves and are full of ancient monuments, many
dating back thousands of years. A number of black and white houses can be found of
these islands. This part of the Hebrides has a beauty and charm of its own and can be
very challenging but rewarding at the same time, as the photogenic landscape can change
in an instant. The mood and atmosphere the weather systems create are out of this world.
The sand dunes never look the same as the wind changes their patterns constantly.
This part of the Western isles doesn’t get many visitors, especially in March and the
weather is usually calm and friendly although cold and this makes it an ideal candidate
for landscape photography courses. The place can be all yours.
Wild, rugged, weathered, geologically abused, tranquil and highly photogenic under the
right light? Oh yes, you better believe it. This 5 night staying in the area, will be a once in a lifetime experience. You have been warned though, once there, you want to go back again. Do not hesitate to book this course, have a look at the pictures from the area and book it in advance. Spaces will not be available for very long.
