Hello :)

I guess the first thing I should say is that I love animals! They are my passion and ever since I can remember I have never imagined a life without them. I love nature in general really - I love being amongst it, seeing and hearing it. I take pride in the fact I appreciate the small (or even the tiny) things. Thankfully, there is an abundance of photographers and amazing shots out there that allow me to do so! One day I hope to own a quality camera with a kickarse macro lens so that I can take my own shots, but for now I like to sit back and enjoy seeing the work of others who are just as passionate about life as I am. I am currently studying a Master of Science degree (in Zoology), and will be working on an incredible group of jumping spiders from the genus Maratus! I also have many other interests, including drawing, cars, various sports (but especially martial arts) and outdoor activities like camping :)

Feel free to share any of your photos with me or shoot me an email if you want to know more about jumping spiders!
