I'm a Zoologist by training and a Biology teacher by profession. I like to take photos of those animals that most people overlook - mainly reptiles, amphibians and also invertebrates. I'm always looking for what's hiding between the blades of grass or for the source of that rustling in the dead leaves. I'm hoping to show you something of the UK's wildlife that you may not have seen before, as well as some from further afield in the rest of Europe. My photos are generally not processed after I press the shutter, except for some occasional cropping although I have started to adopt focus stacking for the tinier specimens to increase the wafer-thin depth of field. I don't like to fiddle with the images partly because they ought to be good enough when taken, but mainly because I have no idea how to do it!
