Farne Isles & Bass Rock, 2007 Photo Gallery by luc hoogenstein at pbase.com

Farne Isles & Bass Rock, 2007

Welcome to my "Farne Isles & Bass Rock-2007"-special! In june 2007, I visited the isles with a group of other Dutch photographers. The Farne Isles are famous about the huge numbers of Puffins, which were my personal target, but you can find a variety of other birds around there. We visited Inner Farne two times and Staple Island one time, with eacht visit taking about two hours. Bass Rock, a massive Gannet colony, was also visited once in a second try. Our first attempt to reach Bass Rock failed due to eastern winds, which made it impossible to land (even though the sea looked flat!). We were able to spend allmost two hours with the Gannets.

This Gallery gives you an overall impression about what you could see and photograph on the isles and Bass Rock. For more Puffins, please visit http://www.pbase.com/luchoogenstein/papegaaiduiker , for more Gannets http://www.pbase.com/luchoogenstein/janvangent . All the other species also have more pics in their own galleries.
I hope you this gallery as much as I did in shooting the pics ;-) !

regards,

Luc Hoogenstein

Verbluffende serie Luc! Papegaaiduikers, kuifaalscholvers en zeker ook de JvG's zijn wederom prachtig op de gevoelige plaat gezet. Denk dat ons tripje Bass Rock van 2000 ook maar eens over moet..

Ongelooflijk mooie series. Je bent inderdaad goed bezig geweest. Moet een spectaculaire ervaring zijn geweest! En wat leuk dat je het met ons deelt. In één woord: genieten. Groet, Rob

Erg fraaie serie Luc. Fantastisch op de Farne's,ik heb me daar ook prima vermaakt. Waar heb je die Rode Patrijs gezien trouwens? Leuke waarneming toch wel.

Mijn complimenten Luc. Wat heerlijk om door deze enorme verzameling foto's te mogen grasduinen. Je bent zeer gericht maar ook zeer effectief bezig geweest. Klasse!

Rick van der Weijde		20-Jul-2007 09:09
Fraaie verzameling Luc! En ik heb Han net een mailtje gestuurd dat ik nog niet kan zeggen of ik volgend jaar mee kan/ga. Misschien moet ik daar toch maar op terugkomen... Groet, Rick

A beautiful wildlife gallery. You have captured so many incredible images. I watch television programs about these birds on "Animal Planet." Big vote.

I can't believe it! Your puffins and gannets are amazing. Excellent!

Very nice gallery and some really great shots. I was up that way recently and took a boat trip around the Islands. Unfortunately the Sea was to rough to allow us to land on the Islands. It was still a very enjoyable experience though. Phil
