I have been interested the the natural world from a very early age. My Father was a keen naturalist and worked as a gardener and spending many days of my school holidays with him while he was working he would always point out and name the birds and wildlife around us.

First attempts at wildlife photography were governed by inferior equipment , but after investing in various lenses and a decent camera things rapidly improved.

I do photograph from hides but I prefer to be mobile and out in the fresh air and see what turns up.

Some days good, some days not so good. It's always exciting to get home and see what comes up on the screen and can sometimes be very disappointing.

I find recording the natural world very stimulating and carry on hoping for that perfect photograph.
