Hope you enjoy my selection of images, created after a lifetimes interest in Nature, I have 38 years experience as a Colour Retoucher/ Photographer. The collection of magazines and books above are some of my success in publishing pictures with articles, and winning equipment and software in competitions. Sadly many of the magazines above have ceased production, but pleased to see some are still around, such as BBC Wildlife, Practical Photography and Amateur Photographer grandaddy of them all, which really started my interest in Photography, having read an article in the early 70s on a camera.
As well as having some New Forest pictures published in the BBC Wild life magazine, I have been very fortunate to win two categories in the prestigious BBC Wildlife Contests, they put on quite a show at the Natural History Museum, for the winners, and as my first award ceremony in 1992 winning Insect category was presented by naturalist author and zookeeper, Lee Durrel, and award signed by the late Gerald Durrel who my wife sat next to when having our candle lit dinner under the large skeleton of a Dinosaur, which is the centrepiece as you walk in, how many people can say that. Something I shall never forget. My second award ceremony was in 2000 winning British Wildlife category. It was through winning that competition, I joined Woodfall Wild Image library, which is now, run by Photoshot Group.
