It all started at the age of 14 when my
Father purchased a 35mm SLR camera, a Minolta Dynax 600si. Seeing my Father with a camera made me want to have a go at Photography,
so I did.
I purchased a 35mm SLR Minolta Dynax 500si
and loved it to bits, I took it everywhere with me taking pictures of whatever interested me and what I thought
would make a good picture.
After using 35mm cameras for 2 years, I
decided to take the step to Digital Photography due to digital being more cost effective. I moved onto a Pentax K100d and
never regret making the leap to digital. Due to a digital camera not costing anything everytime you press the shutter I
could really experiment with my camera and my creativity giving me great oppertunities to learn more and more about photography.
After owning the Pentax for another 2 years I decided it was about
time to upgrade to some serious kit. So back in May 2008 I purchased a Canon EOS 40d plus the 70-200 f2.8 IS USM lens,
and I must say it is fantastic and is well worth the money!

So all the Birds of Prey images you see in my
gallery are taken from here. So if there is anyone who wants the oppertunity to take pictures of these beautiful birds, we
are currently running photography workshops throughout the year. Please click on the link below for more information:
So there you go, a little bit about myself...
I also would like to say that without the support of all my friends
and family I would not be where I am today, and of which I am extremely grateful of.
