All my takes have not been subject to any software enhancement except for those which are obviously m/m in origin. My work is generally taken with a Canon EOS 450 (Rebel) camera using either a kit lens, 75/300mm or occasionally a fixed Sigma 500 mm.

You are welcome to view but all my work is strictly copyright and may not be reproduced in any form or by anyone without my written permission and especially by any commercial organisation.Having said that I will normally not charge for copies of my work but will require full accreditation.

Please rate those wildlife/bird shots-especially any with movement- taken by other artists generously. They are difficult- and a mile away from taking a shot of a barn door.

Home is now in South West France just south of Bergerac-listening to the loud chirruping of the Cetti's Warbler as I walk along the riverbank each morning-else watching the Hoopoes mate in the tree outside the kitchen window and the Kestrel glide back to its nest in one of the tall pines behind the house.

The local kingfisher eludes my camera lens still- a flash of electric blue and then into thick cover...... one day perhaps .....

Regards,Michael.
