They can be found at a number of locations on the island but the Wick,\u00a0a sheer cliff carved with ledges that are ideally suited to nesting seabirds,\u00a0has the largest colony, and is therefore a great place for photographing.<\/div>\n<div>\n<figure style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.robertharding.com\/preview\/1254-17\/puffin-fratercula-arctica-riding-small-wave-north-haven\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.robertharding.com\/preview\/RF\/RH_RF\/HORIZONTAL\/1254-17.jpg\" alt=\"Skomer Puffin swimming in North Haven\" width=\"1000\" height=\"668\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Puffin (Fratercula arctica) riding a small wave in North Haven on Skomer, Wales, United Kingdom, Europe<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<div>&#8220;You can visit the island as a day visitor but if you\u2019re lucky and book well in advance it is\u00a0also possible to stay overnight,&#8221;\u00a0says Matthew. &#8220;This is when the island truly comes to life.&#8221;<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>He considers that staying the night has been a key factor in getting the best opportunities to photograph the birds. &#8220;Throughout the day puffins and other seabirds raft on\u00a0the surface of the sea before returning to these cliffs in huge numbers as the day\u00a0wanes,&#8221; he explains. &#8220;By booking ahead and staying on the Island overnight you are given the opportunity to photograph these birds during the golden hour.&#8221;<\/div>\n<div>\n<figure style=\"width: 715px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.robertharding.com\/preview\/1254-6\/gaping-puffin-fratercula-arctica-captured-wick-skomer-island\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.robertharding.com\/preview\/RF\/RH_RF\/VERTICAL\/1254-6.jpg\" alt=\"Close up of a wild Skomer Puffin\" width=\"715\" height=\"1000\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A gaping puffin (Fratercula arctica) captured at the Wick on Skomer Island, Pembrokeshire, Wales, United Kingdom, Europe<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<div>On the question of what equipment to use, Matthew thinks that the obvious choice when photographing seabirds is to use a telephoto lens and fill the frame with your subject, however he considers that the resulting photographs don&#8217;t always tell the whole story of life on a seabird colony. &#8220;Don\u2019t be afraid to break out your wide angle lens and capture the wider scene,&#8221; he says. &#8220;With patience and a bit of luck you can get some very rewarding shots.&#8221; Matthew&#8217;s photograph entitled \u2018Skomer Puffins\u2019 was taken on a wide angle lens at 16mm.&#8221;<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n<figure style=\"width: 669px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.robertharding.com\/preview\/1254-16\/puffin-fratercula-arctica-gaping-tongue-out-wick-skomer\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.robertharding.com\/preview\/RF\/RH_RF\/VERTICAL\/1254-16.jpg\" alt=\"Skomer puffin with its tongue out image\" width=\"669\" height=\"1000\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Puffin (Fratercula arctica) gaping with his tongue out at the Wick on Skomer Island, Wales, United Kingdom, Europe<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<div>The birds on Skomer are very used to people and it&#8217;s easy to get close to them, but Matthew reminds us that visitors &#8211; including photographers &#8211; must be considerate. &#8220;It is very important to remember that the birds&#8217; welfare must come first,&#8221; he says. &#8220;Stay on the path and don\u2019t spend too long photographing a particular bird, especially if it has a beak full of sand eels &#8211; they may have a young chick who needs feeding.&#8221;<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>&#8216;Skomer Puffins&#8217; can be viewed along with other Landscape Photographer of the Year 2017 competition winners and commendations in an exhibition on Waterloo Station, London, until 4th of February 2018.
