June 2007
Highlight of the month was a very successful 10 day tour of Bulgaria guided by local wildlife photographer Emil Enchev. Emil organises flexible, tailor-made photographic tours in Bulgaria to suit your individual goals, and I can highly recommend his services. A full trip report will be published soon (now online here). In the meantime, here is a very small sample of a few of my favourite images...
