Although I've been taking pictures for a long time, I still consider myself a novice photographer. Just within the past few years have I taken a serious interest in improving. I am working on developing a better "eye", hoping that it is a skill that can be learned. I'm dreaming of an SLR digital camera, but for now am happy with my Panasonic FZ5.

As you can see from my photostream, my favourite subject is birds, but I enjoy nature photograpy in general. I also love to travel and take photos of the places that I visit. My ideal holiday - going somewhere that I could take photos of birds!

I've recently become a moderator for a great group: The World Through My Eyes

- possibly the friendliest group on Flickr!
