To all my followers it would be great if you could leave me a positive Facebook review. The reason i ask is that I have just spent hours trying to resolve strange fake reviews that appeared on my page around 2013! These are people who have never done business with me before and when I politely asked them the reason for a negative review I got no response. Apparently there is no way i can get these removed and as you can imagine this negatively affects my business when potential clients see a 78% review instead of the 100% it should be. Many thanks and I sincerely hope you don't suffer the same and also have to deal with Facebooks inane system of dealing with it. Link Below! Many thanks in advance!!!👍😊

I’m often asked what I carry for wildlife photography outings, so here’s my go-to kit and why it matters. 🦊📷

Long lens (180–600mm) for crisp, close-up shots without disturbing wildlife. A tripod with a video or gimbal head for steady, smooth tracking of birds in flight. If I plan to be shooting at dawn or dusk when light levels are low a faster prime or zoom. Natural-colour camouflage and quiet clothing to stay unseen. Lens cloths, spare batteries and a bag hide or camo groundsheet complete the bag.

Why it helps you: better sharpness, more natural behaviour from subjects, and fewer missed moments. Want hands-on tips with feedback on your own kit and images? Book a one-to-one session with me and we’ll practice, working on composition, camera settings and fieldcraft.
