Hi
Im a wildlife photographer from Edinburgh,Scotland .I have a huge love for the natural world, and my biggest passion is Birds at the moment but i love all aspects of natural history from the tiny little insects to the huge planets

I love being out in the sticks with my camera, seeing all the beauty that surrounds me and i try my best to capture those moments in time. 99.9 percent of my shots are from my local nature haven ,Cammo Estate in Edinburgh just 5 mins from home , a place i have been spending endless hours soaking up the sounds and sights of wildlife since i was a kid.




My Gear
Nikon D3S
Nikon D300
Nikon AF-S 500MM F4 VR
Nikon AF-S 16-85MM f3.5-5.6 VR DX


I try and get as close to my subjects as possible.
I Shoot in RAW and my post processing is very minimal.

All my shots are of wild creatures in the wild.

I have a thing for catchlight and try to make sure i have it in all my subjects eyes, i never add anything to my images in post processing.


All comments and views are much appreciated. I think a fav is always worth a comment!! And i welcome constructive advice wholeheartedly.

I hope you enjoy my work as much as i enjoy making it.
All images on my stream belong to me and me only.I have no problems allowing my work to be used but only by written consent.
