bio
Rather than a biography of my photography career, I thought I’d use this to explain the reasons behind the website you’ve viewing and hopefully enjoying.
Photography was something that my Dad introduced me to when I was younger and I progressed for a while before taking a break for a number of years.
I bought a new Nikon digital SLR in the US whilst on holiday in 2007 and things went from there – I’ve always been a lover of wildlife and, eventually, the two passions fused into a preference for photographing animals and birds and hence this website.
I guess it started initially as a bit of a vanity project to showcase my humble photographic efforts, but I thought that perhaps it could be a little bit more. Maybe I could use the site, in some very small way, to highlight the continuing battle to preserve species and habitats to ensure these wonderful creatures are there for future generations to enjoy.
A big ask for a small, unimportant website – but I guess every little helps…
