Profile Information

About Me and My Photography Experience:
I grew up in the countryside of Northwest England and spent time roaming and enjoying my surroundings there. This love of the outdoors gave me the desire to travel and see other parts of the world.

During my travels I have appreciated more and more the wonderful wildlife that surrounds us and decided to capture those images. I tend to focus mainly on Birds and Dragonflies, but also enjoy the thrill of capturing any wildlife that crosses my path or any special places that evoke my emotions.

I have a blog at http://findlayfotographics.blogspot.com/2011/05/whats-this-blog-all... which describes the journey of my photography by yearly episodes.
I also have a website at http://findlayfotographics.weebly.com/
My Photography Equipment:
Nikon D300s Camera;
Nikon 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6G AF-S VR NIKKOR lens;
Tamron SP AF 200-500mm F5-6.3 Di LD IF lens;
Tokina SD 12-24 f/4 (1F) DXII lens;

Hi Carole,re your question on lenses, i mostly use a canon ef-s 55-250 1:4-5.6 is, or a standard canon ef 75-300 for all my wildlife shots, generally need something like that as you cant get too close down on the beach or out in the bush.
