About Me
I have created this website to showcase my passion for photography, and in particular for wildlife.
From childhood, I have always had a strong fascination with nature. When I was given my first camera, it was no surprise that I focussed it on wildlife. I wanted to capture the beauty in nature and to travel the world. Below are some examples of some of the locations I have been fortunate to visit and enjoy.
In Borneo I spent time with one of our closest relations, the Orangutan and learnt of the threat to its survival as palm oil plantations replace its forest home.
Staying in tents in the Masai Mara I was on hand to witness some amazing wildlife events. Just like the ‘Big Cat Diary’, I observed the behaviour of several families and individuals. It was such a privilege to spend time with them and share a small part of their lives.
I have travelled to Alaska, the great wilderness, where I camped out and photographed Brown Bears during the salmon run. A true spectacle of the natural world.
Lately my adventures took me to the Falklands, where I spent weeks with their five species of penguin that inhabit some of the islands. As always, it is a privilege to spend time close to nature and observe its natural behaviour, whilst learning about the different species, it assists with capturing interesting images.
Having witnessed the above, and so much more, I have seen how our desire for wealth and resources is forcing nature into ever smaller pockets of natural environments, or ’nature reserves’, to survive in. This has led me towards wanting to use my imagery to help educate and inspire people, to preserve the amazing natural world that we are so rapidly destroying.
Closer to home, I published a book; 365 days in nature, which showcases some of the amazing wildlife the UK still has to offer. Each day is represented by a unique photograph including the camera settings used to obtain the image. My hope is that the book may inspire others to go outdoors and enjoy nature.
