After ten days of chasing some barn owl images from a perfect location with a barn owl in residence (or so I thought!) I had no results to show for it. You make feel like trading in your gear and taking up darts but in this video I show you what I do to reset my wildlife photography and hopefully to come back with stronger images in the future. This time I head to Bleaklow in the Derbyshire Peal district with no clear plan but knowing there is likely to be Curlew, Mountain hare, Merlin and yes perhaps even Short-eared owl in residence. Join me to see how I get on and how one good day can make all the failure worth while. Follow the channel for UK wildlife and Nature
So You Want To Be A Wildlife Photographer Part 4
In the last part of this mini series I take my budget setup of a Nikon D3200 and Tamron 70-300 lens away from shooting birds/animals around the garden and out into my local area. Hopefully this video demonstrates that even with an entry level setup (remember this cost me £300) You can still begin to enjoy wildlife photography and take some stunning images. Please comment and let me know what you think.
Bird of Prey Photography and Footage
After visiting Lanford Lowfields and having such a great time photographing hobby's I decided that if there was a chance of more images and footage I should head back there. Over four sessions I manage to capture some more images and film as well as film of a Marsh Harrier. Join me this week as I explore the reserve further.

The Best Mirrorless Wildlife Camera - On A Budget
This weeks Youtube video is now live. This week I reveal the camera I chose to be my backup wildlife photography camera. I had a huge choice in the Sony range with the A9ii the A9 the A1 and several other models, what did I chose and why, well that may just surprise you and give you food for thought if you are considering taking out another mortgage for your next camera purchase! As always please like and subscribe and thank you all for your continuing support, it's very much appreciated.
Photography Courses Update (Covid 19)
Finally after over a year of not taking bookings for my photography courses and 1-2-1 days I think it’s now safe to begin running some of them again.
Initially I am now taking bookings for 1-2-1 sessions for beginners, landscape photography and wildlife photography. To do this safely I will be wearing a mask throughout the day and also taking precautions with the use of hand sanitizers etc. I think by doing it this way and not looking to run group sessions pulling in many people from different areas we are staying within the rules and I can still offer an enjoyable day allowing the client to learn in a one to one environment. If you are interested please book in the normal way through this website. If you have other requirements please contact me via email, through the contact form on this website or via my mobile 07791426742. I look forward to seeing you.
