Discover Lundy with your camera or smartphone. In a place of wide spaces and big skies, without roads, cars or pollution, simply exploring is a profound pleasure. Lundy has a milder climate than the mainland, with more sunshine and less rain.The particular character of Lundy derives from its varied terrain; on the west side, exposed to the Atlantic, there are high and rugged cliffs, on the east, sheltered from the prevailing wind, the coastline is gentler with grassy slopes, trees and many types of wildflowers. This contrast explains the rich diversity of the island’s animal and plant life and its attraction to visitors.
Believe that photography is an art form that knows no boundaries. Striving to create an inclusive and welcoming environment where everyone feels comfortable expressing themselves through the lens of their camera. It doesn’t matter if you shoot with a high-end DSLR, a smartphone, or anything in between – all equipment is embraced and celebrated equally.
This Photography Event is not just about taking photos; it’s about fostering a sense of belonging and encouraging personal growth within a supportive and non-judgmental space. By coming together and engaging with Mark, you’ll have the chance to expand your horizons, learn new skills, and gain inspiration from the vibrant tapestry of experiences that Mark brings.
So whether you’re an amateur looking to refine your technique, a professional seeking fresh perspectives, or someone who simply enjoys the beauty of photography, I invite you to join me in Lundy. Come as you are, with your camera in hand and an open mind, and let’s capture the world together through our unique lenses.
Whether you’re a seasoned professional, an aspiring enthusiast, or simply someone who enjoys capturing beautiful moments, this is the perfect space for you to connect, learn, and share your passion with others. In our time together we will explore the island with your camera or smartphone, with no fixed narrative, we will be in this beautiful space, whether you are interested in land or seascapes, or the unique wildlife the island has to offer and if you are staying on the island with Mark, sunrises, sunsets and astrophotography.
