• Story of the image

  While at Lake Kerkini in Greece I had the opportunity to photograph Dalmatian Pelicans. There were very many different ways to photograph these iconic birds, but when I was lying on the floor, this particular Pelican decided to approach me, and quite literally it seemingly "laughed out loud" as it passed me by!!

  I live in the UK, but I am an avid explorer and get out in my campervan along roads less travelled, aiming to photograph the wildlife I encounter amidst some of Nature's most environmentally significant and diverse places. From photographing Puffins on a remote, snowy island hundreds of miles above the arctic circle, to photographing Dalmatian Pelicans in one of Europe's premier wetlands, I aim to capture unique and captivating images that inform and inspire.
