Wildlife Photography

Photography is a form of visual communication, and in its way raises public awareness of wildlife and nature. This area of my site has been principally developed to promote the conservation of wildlife within the British Isles. Additionally, in each article, you will find hints and tips on wildlife photography for each species, including where to photograph and basic camera settings and equipment needs.

Whilst this section of the site is dedicated to wildlife in the British Isles, it should be useful for wildlife photographers everywhere. Certainly, the messages contained on conservation, apply to wildlife all over the planet, and will hopefully, be a useful reference guide to anyone with an interest in wildlife conservation.
