I grew up in the countryside of Northwest England and spent time roaming and enjoying my surroundings there. This love of the outdoors gave me the desire to travel and see other parts of the world.

During my travels I have appreciated more and more the wonderful wildlife that surrounds us and decided to capture those images. I tend to focus mainly on Birds and Dragonflies, but also enjoy the thrill of capturing any wildlife that crosses my path or any special places that evoke my emotions.

I use a Nikon D300s with a Nikon 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6G AF-S VR NIKKOR and Tamron SP AF 200-500mm F5-6.3 Di LD IF Lenses for my shots. I also use a Manfrotto 680B monopod or Manfrotto 190CXPRO4 tripod, if not hand holding, along with either a Manfrotto 322RC2 trigger grip head or Manfrotto 393 & gimble style head.

England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Jersey, France, Italy, Gran Canaria, Madeira, Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Estonia, Russia, Rhodes, Corfu, Turkey, Egypt, India, Australia, Costa Rica, Panama, Trinidad & Tobago, Barbados, Bonaire, Tortola, Aruba, Dominican Republic, St Vincent, Grenada, Antigua, St Lucia, USA (Florida, New York State, Colorado, California), Canada (Ontario, Manitoba).
