Welcome to my website.
I am an enthusiastic amateur wildlife photographer, who enjoys photographing a range of animals snd insects from enormous whales to the smallest of creatures such as butterflies and dragonflies.

I have received commendations from the Bird Photographer of the Year competition, and my images have been published in
My images have also been used by the artists listed to the right of this page.
On my site, you will find wildlife from my own garden and from some amazing places, including the Arctic regions and Antarctica, the USA and Canada, Central and South America, Australia, Europe, Africa, South-east Asia and the Indian sub-continent.
