“We want our guests to experience how Indigenous Australians live, connected to the environment through their spiritual knowledge of their homelands,” said tour leader Lynn Gail, who shoots for travel photography providers Lonely Planet, Getty Images and Robert Harding World Imagery. “I want to share the experience of photographing the uniqueness of Arnhem Land, where the rhythms and routines of Aboriginal culture are at one with this spectacular landscape.”

Both Lynn and professional photography teacher Seng Mah will be on hand throughout the tour to provide advice and tuition. The tour is aimed at photographers of all levels, from beginners to experienced shooters.
