I have had an interest in wildlife, particularly birds, for as long as I can remember. In 2007 I purchased my first DSLR, a EOS400D shortly followed by a Sigma 50-500mm (the Bigma) and from then on was hooked!

Following my retirement in 2008 I have increased my holding in Canon stock! Current kit:

EOS 40D, R5 (x2)

EFS 17 - 85 f4-5.6

EF400mm f4 DO ii

EF 100mm f/2.8

Sigma 150mm f2,8 OS macro

EF 1.4x iii Extender

EF 2x iii extender

Speedlite 430EX11

Laowa RF 95mm f2.8 2x macro

I am interested in all wildlife but seem to concentrate on birds although macrophotography is an increasing activity.

I try to keep my post processing to a minimum but do use DPP4 and Topaz to adjust lighting and sharpness with varying degrees of success!
