Wild & Long

Though I originally made my living as a photojournalist, and then branched out into a range of business activities for many years, since I returned to doing photography full-time in the mid-90’s my passion has been the luminous landscape. But an abiding love of nature and the desire to take on new challenges has lead me to increasingly explore wildlife photography. 

This page contains a selection of my personal favourite wildlife images taken in the past few years. At the bottom of the page there are links to the sections that describe the locations as well as articles on the techniques and equipment used to create them.
