Wildlife Photography across the Water: Man flu stopped play

Man flu stopped play

It has been a long time since I have been out with the cameras, what with one thing and another that has been going on. I wanted to put that right this weekend but sadly man flu has kicked in with a vengeance dropping me down on Saturday and then particularly so yesterday. So sadly, my current photo drought continues but I hope to put that right next weekend, and we have some good plans for later this month during the Christmas break.

So here's a heads up of some posts that will coming your way over the next couple of weeks or so from me. I will finish off the Spring Trip Planning with a blog on the Cairngorms in Scotland, and then following on from last year, we will bring the the 12 days of Christmas with a look back at each month of blogging this year. If you have been a regular reader then it will give you a chance to look back at some of the highlights, and if you are one of the many thousands of new readers, it will be all new material to you, unless you have been back through the archives.....that is.

It is Sunday night as I write this, and it is time to dose myself up with drugs (legal,of course) and hot apple, blackcurrant, honey and whisky, and get off to bed. Cheers

Martin

Edit: This was supposed to post first thing this morning on auto post. I told you I was ill!!

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.
