I have now created two new calendars for 2011, titled British Wildlife Large and Small and Scenes of Somerset. In addition, many of the old designs are also available, again with next year's dates. The calendar format is designed by Redbubble and unusually, it is possible to start from any month you choose. The calendars are printed on good quality 200gms paper at A3, so they are larger and better quality than most calendars on the High Street.
Now Available from Blurb.com, a new book containing illustrated short stories of my experiences with nature, from the UK to Nepal. This has recently been updated to a second edition, correcting some typograpohical and formatting errors. A cheaper text only version is also available.
Chris is a photographer who explores a large range of nature subjects in his photography. His Natural World Gallery is particularly worth exploring, as he portrays the familiar in an unfamiliar way.
Kevin is a master when it comes to an eye for landscapes in black and white. He confesses to being lost when it comes to colour and feels he has failed if a black and white conversion doesn't work. It's a rare image that he can't get to work in black and white though and he is able to pare the magnificent Scottish landscape to its simplest form.
Laurie is one of Scotland's foremost nature photographers, winning many awards over the years. He describes himself as a generalist, with subjects ranging from wide open landscapes, down to macros, featuring virtually any subject in between, including a number of abstract images, where he is a master at portraying subjects in new ways.
Exmoor Photography is run by Jack Clegg. Jack is a wildlife photographer based in the Minehead area. He specialises in wildlife from Somerset, particularly Exmoor and the Somerset Levels and his main passion is watching and photographing the red deer of Exmoor. He also has a number of otter photographs, showing some interesting behaviour.
Ethereal Light is run by Julian Elliott. Julian shares his time between Salisbury in the UK and France and specialises in serene landscapes. Some of the images from the Salisbury area are particularly evocative, with lots of soft pastel colours.
Perhaps his subject matter reflects his personality, but none can deny his ability to capture more exotic wildlife from outside the UK, as his awards demonstrate. He is absolutely passionate about tigers and tiger conservation. More recently, he has been photographing more British wildlife, much closer to his Welsh home.
