Do you want to make those
awesome seabird photos that attracts admiration from your friends and
other photographers?
Knut Sverre Horn and
Bjarne Riesto invites you to participate our workshop at Hornøya.
Perhaps the best place in Europe for photographing Guillemots,
Brunnichs guillemot, puffin, shags, seagulls and more. Here you have
all the species right in front of you. In addition you will
experience a lot of fresh air, exciting weather, meet nice people and
maybe see the northern lights.
This little arctic island is the
north-eastern most point in Norway and is world famous for its rich
birdlife. The birds are usually easy to approach and that gives
opportunities for many great shots. Lots of awarded pictures are
taken here, for example:

Most people visiting
Hornøya do so at summer, but at the time for our workshop it is
still winter conditions. That means you will come home whit pictures
that few other people have in their archives.
The workshop lasts from Thursday till Sunday. During the days we will
share our experiences, give you information about the birdlife and
surroundings, and of course give you the useful tips how and where
you get the best shots. After a long day outside we enjoy a good meal
made by the best of chefs, we have a nice chat, show you pictures, and you are of
course welcome to show your results from the day if you like. Or you
can go outside for the night shots and northern light.
If the weather permits we
will also go on a boat trip searching for the large congregations of
king eider and stellers either that usually are in the area.
There are two workshops.
The dates are 17-20 of march and 31 march – 3 april.
The price are 4990,- NOK
and includes transportation to the island (from Vardø), all meals,
accommodation at the lighthouse and boat trip.
Vardø has an airport, and
you can fly all the way, but you have to arrange that for yourself.
Of course we can help you to find the best connections, and we will
answer all your questions best as we can.
