Lake Kerkini Pelicans
Posted on 30/1/25
Lake Kerkini is home to a large colony of Dalmatian Pelicans (around 800 in the winter months). They follow the boats closely for the occasional fish thrown to them. Of the 2000 or so images taken during the first morning (smoking CF Express cards for all of us), these are the ones I enjoyed taking the most.
Its also worth looking out for the fantastic “hair styles" the pelicans have and also the quite intimidating stare they give you if the fish flow pauses too long for them.

Chasing the Sky: 3,500 Miles Across America’s Great Plains
There are trips that ease you in gently, and there are trips that grab you by the collar and don’t let go. This was firmly the latter.
Over one extraordinary week I covered something in the region of 3,500 miles, looping out of Denver and across the great open belly of America — Colorado, Nebraska, Iowa, Missouri, Oklahoma, Texas and Kansas — before finally turning for home and rolling back across the Colorado plains. It was, without question, one of the most thrilling photographic adventures I’ve ever thrown myself into.

The Calm Before the Storm — A Couple of Days in Denver
The Calm Before the Storm — A Couple of Days in Denver
There's a particular kind of itch you get the day before a big trip properly begins. The gear's checked, the bags are packed, and the storms I'd flown all this way to chase were still a few days off, sulking somewhere out over the Plains and biding their time. So rather than pace the hotel room and refresh the forecast for the hundredth time, I did the only sensible thing — grabbed the camera, laced up my boots, and gave myself a couple of days to warm up. Shake off the jet lag, get the eye working again, and remember which way round the Hasselblad goes.
Denver, it turns out, is a wonderful place to do exactly that.

Storm Chasing Adventure
Right, I’m sitting at Heathrow and the adventure is about to begin — this time it’s something very different to anything I’ve done before!
I’m heading to Denver, Colorado, for a week-long storm chasing photography tour across the Great Plains with Storm Chasing Photography Tours.
