What to Expect
Bruny Island is a microcosm of the Tasmanian mainland. It is blessed with an extraordinarily diverse range of distinct environments comprising spectacular coastlines, geological wonders, rainforests, mountains, lagoons, and rare flora and fauna—a cornucopia of photographic material, all at your doorstep!
Bruny Island is one of the most southerly points in Australia; meaning, it has an exceptionally good vantage point for Aurora Australis should favourable space-weather conditions present themselves. The absence of light pollution also means that the skies are incredibly dark, providing an overwhelming display of stars in your astrophotography.
All Workshops include:
- Boat Cruise from Hobart to Bruny Island (weather permitting)
- All transfers between Hobart and Bruny Island, including shoot locations
- Tasmanian gourmet food and drink (all inclusive; including alcohol)
- Deluxe twin-share accommodation at Bruny Island Coastal Retreats (Single supplement opt.)
- Bruny Island photocentric Adventure cruise
- Iconic Bruny Island locations; plus, rarely seen private nature reserves
- On-location field coaching
- Post-processing classes
- Restricted group sizes for maximum tuition assistance
