Bridging The Gap...

Wednesday, February 1. 2012

Hi Everyone,

I'm without a car at the moment so limited to watching for dolphins at North Kessock. Kesslet and Charlie were possibly spotted by my pal Alan's wife Pru who was walking down towards Chanonry. Alan is laid up poorly with a bad cold just now so get well soon my friend, and thanks to Pru for the info.

I was trying out the camera that I bought Susan for her Christmas present, bolting it onto my big telephoto lens and some of the results were a bit arty...


Best Wishes,


Charlie.

Going For Gold Next Time Kesslet?

Thursday, January 26. 2012

Hi Everyone,

Yesterday I had Kesslet and Charlie visiting Kessock in very silvery light, and with the last photo of them being in bronze coloured water I wonder, since it's the Olympics this year if Kesslet is going to go for gold light the next time I photograph her?

Just one of those silly thoughts that I have now and again...


Best Wishes,


Charlie.

Waiting For Some Action...

Tuesday, January 24. 2012

Hi Everyone,

I'm in a state of limbo at the moment where not much seems to be happening locally. There have been some sightings coming in to me from far and wide however, indeed our very own Scottish Dolphin Centre at Spey Bay had some great action for their first dolphin sightings of 2012 just this morning with 10 or so dolphins with some youngsters, some were having a good old breach to themselves like Sundance and Beatrice in this archive photo.

I'm hoping that it's not going to be too long before I see some nice dolphin breaching myself...


Best Wishes,


Charlie.

Happy New Year Kesslet !

Saturday, January 14. 2012

Hi Everyone,

It was a bitterly cold but a lovely and sunny morning standing watching Kesslet & Charlie as they surfaced to breathe in the Kessock Channel. The air was so still and the dolphins "blow" showed up so well that it was quite easy to see where they were and keep track of them with the camera.

The pair of them were away in the distance for ages then they came a bit closer to where I was standing with the camera and I took this quite atmospheric shot of Kesslet coming to the surface, her breath catching the bronze light. This is my first dolphin photo of 2012, so thank you and Happy New Year Kesslet !


Best Wishes,

Charlie.

Back To Work Again...

Sunday, January 8. 2012

Hi Everyone,

Well, here we are with one week of 2012 behind us and the weather up here near Inverness actually isn't that bad for getting out and about. Hopefully over the next wee while I'll manage to track down some dolphins for you and let you know what they are getting up to.

Isn't it amazing just how many e-mails and stuff build up over the holidays? Eeek, I've got square eyes already!


Best Wishes,

Charlie & The WDCS Adopt a Dolphin Team.
