My lifelong interest in nature photography changed from admirer to photographer in May 2023 when I encountered digital mirrorless cameras. Using unlimited digital captures, image stabilisation, and sophisticated auto-focus tracking, there is now no limit to what can be achieved.

The UK contains a lot of wonderful countryside but is also home to many millions of people. This causes our countryside to be heavily used, and sometimes to be heavily misused. By following the guidance found in both the UK Countryside Code and the US "Leave no trace" movement, you will help preserve our environment for future generations.
For my first two years as a photographer I had my hands full simply learning to keep the subject in frame, in focus, and if extremely lucky in a good range of colour. With all that in mind it was an simple decision to ignore the issue of "digital development" and shoot in jpeg.
Late May is the anniversary of my take up of digital photography after I discovered the existence of digital mirrorless cameras in May 2023.
Spring is finally springing in North Yorkshire with even the sun making an occasional appearance. Happily this means an increased food supply for the local wildlife, even if some of the wildlife fall victim to becoming a meal. Their energy is needed to start build nests and then to start "building" more wildlife 😊
