We will take a little longer with a couple of stops to enjoy the spectacular scenery. Later this afternoon, we drive to our first landscape shoot. Purnululu is in Darran’s top handful of incredible photo hot spots worldwide! Note that photographers of any level are welcome and helped. Our past groups have loved the quality time and unique locations offered by your professional photo guides. They use their experience to maximise timing and show you image options that most would miss. We include our first late light shoot at the domes, often just by ourselves in an incredible wilderness location.

Your guides maximise your shoots, using experience that few others can offer. Angles and timing are so important. Our accommodation is glamping, with very comfortable (regular) beds and a great camp atmosphere. It even offers a bar, and your cabin/safari tent offers full en-suite facilities!

DAYs 3/4/5/6 - PURNULULU (Bungle Bungle) May 6/7/8/9 Four full days of visiting all the highlights of this park. Some are so good that we will visit twice. We will be up before sunrise, offer a midday break and back after sunset. Cathedral Cave, Piccininni Gorge, Echidna Chasm and the many other points that add up to new angles and opportunities to make great images. Plus, we include a 45-minute doors-off helicopter flight over the domes. This flight offers stunning new photos and an eagle-eye view of the vast landscape. Plus we include astro shoots. Beginners to advanced will find these shoots incredible, with the results being unique and simply - awesome! Piccininni Gorge: is the iconic domes area of the park. It is surreal, with rock shapes and patterns that are millions of years in the making. We have unique locations and timing and often shoot just by ourselves. This location is so special that we will explore it multiple times in different lighting, including at night. Cathedral Cave: What a stunning amphitheatre! The walk-in also offers great landscape images and, occasionally, a wildlife surprise. Echidna Chasm: Australia’s premier chasm is a creative photographer’s dream. We target the best time and spend quality time aiming for that unique result. Nature: But it is not about landscapes only. We can photograph birds, reptiles and other fascinating creatures. We include workshops with an emphasis on workshops in the field. (One 45-minute Helicopter trip is included.) Wilderness lodging - (B,D)
