I am a wildlife and nature photographer based in the Forest of Dean, England. I am involved with a number of organisations concerning themselves with conservation and biological recording. Although all forms of wildlife interest me, I have a particular interest in the caprimulgiformes and felidae families. Every species on this website is completely wild and photographed in its natural environment, wherever in the world it may be.
A comprehensive listing of photographs can be found in the galleries. You can also read about many of the trips from which the pictures were taken, accounts of some of my quests for specific wildlife encounters, and more.
