Wildlife Photography across the Water: A look back at some of my favourite pics of the year

A look back at some of my favourite pics of the year

In the last couple of years, I have written a review of the year on a month by month basis, but this year I thought I would just put up a few of my favourite images that I have been lucky enough to get or had a great expereince while taking.

While regular readers will probably remember them, maybe some of our newer readers will not have seen them before

In January, I shared a few images from my Norfolk trip

Jac and I had a great three days in North Norfolk, with some great sightings. Sadly, the weather was misty and very murky, so it was always a photographic challenge. But we loved the encounters with the wildlife all the same. Often at times like this it is the taking part that counts, rather than the results.

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.
