Hello and thank you for visiting my tiny space on flickr.com.
My love for nature and wildlife goes back to my very early childhood years and I find as I am getting older, the need to be out in the bush is getting stronger.
I love to get away and just find a peaceful spot where no one is around and just simply be and photography allows me to bring back those memories and experiences back to my home.
I adore Africa and India and everything they have to offer.
I love to travel and experience different cultures.
I have always been interested in photography but have only been photographing seriously for 2-3 years.
When I am out walking, I always look for the unssual or different but sometimes simple things like the dew on the moss on early misty mornings really make my day.
Other times the busker in the street will also get my attention!
Recently I have been experimenting with HDR and this is something that I would be pursuing further.
Please note that all images are owned by me and if there's something that you like and wish to use it or purchase it then please do not hesitate to contact me.
