Profile

I was born in Manchester but soon moved to Ipswich, Suffolk, I was a member of the RSPB's Young Ornithologists Club at a young age as well as having teachers with a passion for the wildlife. Enjoying the superb countryside around Suffolk in my younger days.
Married to Carol with 2 children, Sian and Joshua my time was mainly spent working or with the family, now they're older I rekindled my passion for photography in line with the digital age, using Nikon equipment. Currently I'm the Wildlife and Ornithology Editor for the Ipswich Star, recognition for the support I've given the paper over the past 5 years. I've also over the past decade been volunteering for the RSPB, I guess as a little payback for all the enjoyment I get from wildlife.

There’s so much wildlife in this region, East Anglia is very diverse from Red Deer herds to woodlands blanketed in bluebells, estuaries and reservoirs filled with 10’s of 1000’s of birds to local parks housing celebrity Tawny Owls and being on the East coast the prospect that an unusual visitor is only around the corner and a good easterly wind, we’ve ancient woodland to modern developments all of which host a wide range of wildlife, Peregrines nesting under the Orwell Bridge and Black Tailed Godwits that travel 1000’s of miles every year from their breeding grounds in Iceland to their winter resort on the River Stour.

I hope you enjoy my images as much as I do taking them
