News - New Forum

Today is my birthday!! So what I hear you cry - that doesn't let you off blogging!!.

Dave and I have set out to put up content every day, and have succeeded so far - in fact there are normally more posts than days in the month.

So anyway, just a quickie today for all of you who have followed us from the days of EOS-Forums, which I had advised was having problems with hosting, there is a new forum that we are using - Canon Fodder Forums.

It has been specifically set up for users of Canon's EOS systems, so if you are a fellow Canon snapper, why not pop by and have a look.

Right that's me tonight - off for some more wine.

Back later in the week with a report on my custom made bag for my 1D + 500 f4 with the hood fitted the right way round - so if you use that combination, drop by and see how it could make the difference between you getting the shot......or not.

Update: Just corrected a few typos - thanks to an eagle eyed follower of the blog - clearly the wine is affecting my fingers or eyes.....or both

Bio's

David Courtenay, a self taught wildlife and nature photographer, has been capturing images for over 30 years. He has had a passion for wildlife since early childhood and remembers being glued to the television whenever Survival, Wildlife on One and other natural history documentaries were shown. In the 2006 he swapped his established career for the life of a wildlife photographer, such a move demands a measure of uncompromising passion and commitment.

David has travelled extensively throughout Europe as well as spending more than 7 months in India working with local guides and trackers in search of Bengal Tiger, Asian One horned Rhino and Asian Elephant. He has also photographed Wildlife in Australia, Malaysia, Thailand, Sumatra, Africa, Canada and America. Working closely with Conservation companies he tries to raise funds to help Wildlife that has been put on the endangered list by poaching and habitation loss

Martin Dyer has had a passion for avian wildlife since childhood, particularly raptors. Photography was also another keen interest and it was with the specific availability and control of the whole process that digital offers that Martin was then able to combine the two in 2003. Based in the UK, Martin is a regular visitor to Scotland, specifically the Isle of Mull to watch the Eagles resident there. Other trips to Europe and around the UK are usually part of Martin’s agenda in a typical year.

However, as a firm believer on making the most of the local patch, Martin has spent a lot of time and hard work creating a wildlife garden which is reaping the rewards with many new species and varieties of wildlife. A keen member of a number of wildlife photographic groups, Martin is keen to expand his portfolio into other areas of wildlife, and has already established a wide portfolio of images of fungi.
