About

Hi and welcome to my Website

I have setup this site to enable me to showcase some of my favourite wildlife and nature shots.

I have always had an interest in nature and this combined with my interest in photography makes for a great hobby.

I purchased my Canon EOS 20D in October 2005, together with Sigma 70-300mm Lens. This is my first DSLR. I followed this up in November of that year with the purchase of of the Bigma .....50-500mm (it weighs a ton!). I am also now the proud owner of Canon EF100mm F2.8 Macro USM.

Most of the images on this site have been taken with the Bigma and the Macro lens.

I have recently taken delivery of a chair hide which I hope combined with existing equipment will enable me to get even closer to British wildlife.

I enjoy taking shots of anything to do with the natural world, this does include captive animals/birds.

For a living I work in Finance, as a Senior Management and Systems Accountant for a local Housing Association.

I am currently in the process of taking my final Chartered Institute of Management Accountants exams. I seem to have been doing this for ever!! but there is now light at the end of the tunnel. Which is one of the reasons I am not able to get out and about with the camera as much as I would like.

I hope you enjoy your visit to my website and should you wish to leave a comment please feel free.
