Hi Guys, I've just picked up the Sigma 150-600mm Contemporary lens for wildlife photography and really enjoying it. In a couple of locations I shoot at, I can get very close to some wild birds, so close in fact that they land within the 2.8m minimum focusing distance. I was wondering if anyone...

Here is another article I published on my website several weeks ago. With so many bird threads appearing on the forum, I thought I'd share it here. URBAN BIRD PHOTOGRAPHY Ever since I was a child, birds have fascinated me. From the exotically coloured hummingbirds to the majestic power of...

More of a mood lighting experiment than anything else. I decided to do a mixture of flash (as a natural looking, low-light fill) and ambient light from the candles inside the bird cage. Definitely a challenging lighting scenario, and as ever, working with a mostly uncooperative 4 year old...

A recent edit from a shoot I took back in early March. Working on my girlfriend's antiquated (read P.O.S.) computer with 4GB of RAM and an uncalibrated TN panel, is not the most fun thing in the world with a 1.6GB PSD file. Slow is an understatement!! I miss my PC at home, that's for sure...

I shot this earlier this evening, at short notice. I did multiple light setups and poses but this one really stood out for me. Just a single strobe inside a 42cm.

Hi Guys, I've have literally just finished and published the new look site. I was with Squarespace but changed host to Wix because it gave me much greater control over layout and content. My main issue was the menu system in SS had become so large and clunky that I needed something more user...

Hi folks! Looking forward to conversing with everyone, on all things photography related.
