Wildlife Photography across the Water: Back to Normality

Wednesday 27 October 2010

Back to Normality

12 Hours of decorating today and the weather has been wet for 2 days so no chance to get the cameras out, But these things need to be done so a wet day is the best time i guess, I have another 2 or 3 days and then its all done, Looks like we lost the house i really liked so its back to viewing which is a chore and time consuming but if i can fine 2 or 3 acres of woodland with a nice house attached then it will all be worth it in the long term,
I mentioned before that i was at Clingmans dome in the Smokys along with a lot of other togs so here are a couple of images showing why you need to get places early to get the best position

and after the sun had set just time for a grab shot

And rather than another sunset here is the moon rising on a beautiful evening

And another out of the box image, I was shooting a waterfall and whirl pool when i noticed the reflection of the trees in a puddle next to me

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.
