Wildlife Photography across the Water: Get ready for Autumn

Get ready for Autumn

Now is the time to start planning your Autumn trips.

As I drove past a load of Fallow deer looking fabulous in the evening light, I was reminded that Dave posted this Deer Rut timetable last year, so thought it timely to post a reminder.

The Autumn bird migration is well under way, and it will be worth dropping into many of the bird reserves around the country as the reverse migration takes place. Lots of great sightings at the moment are being reported all over, so the next month or two should be fun.

Not too far off now will be the fungi season and here was last years heads up

Update: While not being a fan of Apple products, here is a useful app for you from Rogers Mushrooms, a great place for your fungi ID's when you get out there photographing them.

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.
