What an amazing tour. Wildflowers and orchids everywhere - managed to get shots that were sharp - even of the smallest thanks to Anna-Mair. Locations were awesome - no crowds even on a long weekend ( they sure know the best locations) . Pinnacles were amazing at the golden hour and we were treated to a spectacular sunset with the Pinnacles in the foreground. A bbq dinner was followed by Astro - I finally got a shot of the Milky Way! A truly great day. Can recommend this tour and Capture the Light highly enough. Anna- Mair is a fantastic teacher. She is patient, easy to learn from and has a great knowledge of photography . I use a Panasonic and my partner a Nikon but this was no problem as she clearly know the cameras well and how to get the best shots. Thank you for an amazing tour. Would recommend them to anyone visiting Western Australia
