Our Wildlife & Landscape Images Gallery, is not a showcase of the best images in our collection.
Why not? I hear you ask.
Well, the images are intended to give you a realistic interpretation of the type of images You will be likely to capture during our Holidays and Courses. Some of the images are straight out the camera, while others have one or many digital techniques used,just as our chemical based predecessor used Darkroom techniques, we now use similar essential and adjustments techniques in our "Lightroom".
I hope these images give you a feeling for what Shetland is about. And like me an uncontrollable urge to get out in the field with my camera. Lee Mott Shetland Photography Holidays.
