Wildlife Photography across the Water: Focus on Imaging

Focus on Imaging

After Dave's great mega blog and fab photos of yesterday, it's just a short quickie or a quick shortie from me tonight to give our readers from the UK side of the water a reminder that it is not too long now until the photo extravaganza that is Focus on Imaging at my old workplace, the NEC.

If you have been before and registered you will no doubt shortly be receiving your automatic tickets. But if you haven't then check out this link which will give you all the details and information that you need to know.

Jac and I may well take a look in this year, as I haven't been in for a couple of years now. Not that I will be looking to buy any new kit, although I do fancy taking a peek at some of the new Nikon gear. Did I just say that out loud? Oops!!

One tip for you though , do check what else is on at the NEC in terms of other shows and plan around that. March is their second busiest month . The good news is that it doesnt clash with Crufts otherwise you would be in long traffic queues if you are driving.

Anyway, it is a little way off yet but one for the diary.

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.
