Hello and welcome to our British Wildlife Photography Website - we hope you enjoy your visit .........
You can click on any of the image boxes and go straight in or to see the various categories before choosing what to view then click on the fox in BRITISH WILDLIFE (ALL PHOTOGRAPHS) and this brings up all the galleries. Don't forget to press F11 for optimum screen viewing, plus the slideshow option within the galleries is now full screen and shows fantastic detail! The images on this site are devoted to British Wildlife and landscapes feature too as Pauline has an eye for a view! A silly section seems to be taking on a life of its own in the People Pix gallery.........
Pauline says: ...... 'Thank you for all your get well wishes and thoughts sent my way for speedy recovery. 5 months down the line and I'm begining to live with and around this diverticulosis ... I've learned that the good days are for living and the bad days are spent on the computer or in bed with the laptop! Whichever way you look at it I will be concentrating on photography whether the camera is in my hands or not!! I'm picking up images here and there and my health is picking up also - both slowly but better than nothing!
Pauline started photography in earnest 41 years ago......... Ian came a little later to this passion - 19 years back. Wildlife photography has steadily taken over our lives and our pockets........ Pauline went digital in 1999 with a Fuji Finepix. In 2005 we made the switch from Pentax K1000's and slide film to Canon digital SLR's and what had been an ongoing interest ballooned into an obsession! Since then its been pretty predictable: the shower leaks - new shower or new lens - enter the 400 prime ......... the cladding on the house still needs replacing - cladding or lens? - enter the 500!! Pauline retired suddenly from work at the beginning of April 09 to take on full-time care of her mother - not retirement at all then .... 'watching her decline into senile dementia has convinced me I may not live compus mentis into old age - so I have decided to blow my savings!' Enter the 600 prime for him and an upgrade to 40D for me! The cladding still needs replaceing ........ its all about priorities .... (the shower has finally been replaced and the hole in the kitchen ceiling filled - with a new ceiling!! Its not been painted yet - well there's no rush is there?!) Eventually a 7D apeice have been added to the stable. Pauline say's..... 'The website is three years old now and over three thousand images, with viewing figures keeping pace - I need to get out more with the camera! Mam was taken into care 12 months ago and I was just getting a taste of genuine retirement when this illness struck but deteremination to be well again is getting me back on track but its proving to be slow job with frequent set-backs'.
You may notice that the links gallery to other photographers websites has shrunk. I have had a look through and found broken links and some with errors or not opening at all which have been removed. If you think I've lost your link while tidying then please get in touch and I will put you back in. A second Links Gallery has been added as the first one seems to be full!
We say a huge THANK YOU to everyone who takes the time to browse and leave comments - its good to know you are OUT THERE!
If you would like to purchase a print, enquire about editorial use or just more information about any of our images please email using send message link on this page .... thanks! Plus we love to hear from you too if you wish to leave us comments on selected pics or in any of the guest books then please do ........
