"Welcome to my flickr photostream"

Amateur enthusiast photographer based in South Devon uk, originally from West Dulwich South East London, enjoying my life here in the South Hams over the past 22 years.

I have always taken a keen interest in photography using numerous 35mm film cameras back in the day with my first Digi camera being a Canon 3.2 megapixel compact (around the time I joined flickr) then moving up to a fujifilm bridge camera.

My enthusiasm for making images was realy renewed when I purchased my first dslr back around 2010.

Since then, I have upgraded my kit new and used, always sticking with Nikon as my main camera -so a bit of a "Nikon Fanboy" you could say.

My main interest over the years has been landscape, and living here in beautiful Devon has certainly helped with my passion for outdoor photography offering a stunning canvas to work with.

Over the pandemic lockdown I began my new adventure with the camera: Nature/Wildlife and a new passion in my life also followed, going hand in hand with my photography, "Birding" which I have found to be an enjoyable tonic for my well-being.

It has been an interesting journey so far and one that has taken me out and about getting to know Devon a little more intimately- especially around my home patch the South Hams.

Thank you for stopping by and taking an interest in my images and occasional ramblings.

2022 update... Now also using the Olympus om system om-1 kit alongside my trusty old Nikon dslr`s

2025 update... Replaced a seldom used Nikon APS-C dslr for the Nikon Z50 II APS-C using my existing F-mount lenses with the Nikon FTZ II Mount Adapter.

Its taken me awhile to move from my Nikon dslr but I`m now enjoying alongside my Olympus om-1 all the benifits of a mirrorless setup especially for wildlife photography.
