With being raised in a relatively rural part of England, comes a huge love and respect for wildlife. Since I was a young boy I have had a great appreciation for what the countrysidehas to offer, and it is remarkable at what you can see or find from day to day when walking along the same route.

I have set myself some goals in this area of photography also. There are a number of animals I would feel great pride to say I had successfully photographed, these include Barn Owls, Foxes, kingfisher, Otters and Hawks. I know that these goals will be hard to achieve, but without them we wouldn’t get anywhere!
