Nemuro to Rausu

23/2/2018

0 Comments

 
Today we briefly repeated the bird shoot & having just reviewed the images I am quite pleased with todays results. Especially as I was shooting with a (little) 70-200mm lens and not anything like the 500, 600 & 800mm beasts the others have. I have temporarily given up on the 100-400 lens but might give it another go  tomorrow.
As it's so cold you tend not to want to drink water but its also so dry the moisture is sucked out of you.  Whereas in NZ you have pollen/allergy alerts on the weather site, here you have dry air warnings.
At 8.30 we set off for Rausu, on the North East peninsula. 
You can see the Russian Islands from here, of course the Japanese say they are theirs!
I could see many beautiful shots from the bus… it's an immutable law of travelling when you cannot stop.
Another immutable law of travelling is that sooner or later everyone has an off day and today was mine. I flagged the afternoon boat trip to photograph eagles out on the sea ice.  As many will know I'm not a good sailor so that was too big an ask for me  today.  I slept.
Maybe tomorrow.

    Yes, this is me.
    Most  photogs prefer to be behind the camera and I'm no exception.
    So this pic is rather old having been taken at a Ceroc ball in 2012.
