I had a chance encounter with a wild Mandarin Duck in the Peak District National Park. While photographing a pair of Dippers feeding their young this handsome fellow and his lady turned up.
Wildlife photography’s power rests on the belief that it represents an event that occurred naturally in the wild, something witnessed and recorded by the photographer with their camera at that given time.
Fieldcraft and ethics are two of the most important things in wildlife photography. Those that enter the theatre of wildlife are afforded the highest level of trust by nature. How we manage that first contact as I call it is so important
Here is a short film of an adult Dipper feeding in the Peak District National Park, watch how they just dive into the river looking for food, it’s incredible.
