Iam an amateur photographer, I began my photography journey in 2009 and pursued my passion for all things wild. Photography has given me a wonderful opportunity to travel and photograph wildlife in many countries, Scotland, England, Wales, USA, Poland, France, Slovakia Norway Iceland Botswana Zimbabwe Italy Slovenia Finland Namabia France Spain and India. In February 2017 I was lucky enough to be awarded the title of Irish Pphotography Federstion Nature Photographer of the Year.
