Using my camera I try and show not only the beauty of the natural world but also the suffering within that world. My hope is to give all those species a true and meaningful voice around the world with my photographs.
When photographing wildlife Im trying to document wild behaviour, not create something that was fake and contrived.
With the warming temperatures, lighter evenings and the morning dawns becoming earlier, Spring is upon us. It’s my favourite time of year as the countryside is bursting with life.
The Norfolk Spring tides are the biggest and best tides for witnessing the thousands of birds feeding on the mudflats, being pushed closer to shore.
There is something so special seeing a wild Barn Owl quartering, hovering with moth like silence while hunting. Flying effortlessly on the wing in the half-light at dawn or dusk.
Putting wildlife first before your photograph has never been so important. Below are some helpful tips and guidance when you go out with your camera into nature.
As the weather starts getting colder always remember when working with wildlife they come first and the last thing you want to do is to impose yourself to quickly or scare the subject you’re wishing to photograph.
Working with wildlife you often get little time to compose your subject as you wish. You have to work with what nature gives you and this makes you a better photographer I firmly believe.
