About

I was born in Birkenhead in 1951;by the age of five this lucky town boy was bought a set of encyclopaedias by farsighted parents. It was the first time I was able to see ROBINS, OWLS & ROOKS all courtesy of Eric Hoskings Photographs. I still have the encyclopaedias.
I enjoy gaining knowledge, and through taking pictures and analysing the results I have gained an appreciation of the natural world. We have a great deal to learn from all around us, Its up to us not to spoil it.
I took the self portrait while on my way from the station at Chat Hill to Seahouses. I had stopped to rest during the 5 mile walk to the campsite. It was a lone expedition to the Farne Islands by public transport & it felt like I had the weight of the world.......That was 18 years ago. The world seems to have become heavier, but thankfully my understanding has increased.

I had the pleasure of meeting you today at Burton and would like to thank you for all your help (especially with my first woodpecker). The slide show on your portable device did not do your photos justice, larger sized they are even more enjoyable (I have not viewed your whole gallery yet, as I don't want to rush through it!). In one word.....absolutely invigoratingly inspiring!!!

Its been a pleasure viewing it, and I'll be looking forward to viewing more of your great images in the future.
