biography

Welcome to my gallery which showcases my images.

Photographically my main interest is the natural world, both wildlife and landscape.  I have been taking photographs since I was given a Kodak Instamatic as a child.  As a teenager my first ‘proper’ camera was a Praktica and then I graduated to Pentax SLRs, which I used for 20 years.

Recently I purchased my first Nikon, an F100.  This new camera rekindled my interest in photography.  I have since used a number of Nikon bodies and lenses.  My primary camera is digital – a Nikon D2x, for film I use the lovely F6.

I work for Natural England doing nature conservation work in North Kent where I look after a number of Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSIs).  When I can escape from my desk I get to visit some wonderful wildlife sites in the county.  Unfortunately I’m not paid to take wildlife pictures so my photography is done in my spare time.

I hope you like my images.
