Features

ARTIST NOTES: This photography is of the tail of a grey whale, taken in San Ignacio Lagoon, Baja California Sur, Mexico. Grey whales have the longest known migration of any mammal, travelling from the water of the Arctic which are their feeding grounds, to the warmer waters of Baja California to breed and to calve. The special thing about these grey whales are that they are known as the "friendly" grey whales as they bring their baby up to boats for people to be able to "pat" them. This photo was taken from one of these pangas as the whale was going below the surface to swim under us.

ARTIST BIO

My passion for photography developed from a young age encouraged by my father, who was also a photographer.

I love the intimate peek at the details of nature captured by my cameras, the beauty and detail usually missed by the naked eye.

I live on a comparatively isolated property in country Victoria that is never sprayed and is often not very tidy in the garden or its woods.  As a result, the property abounds with life; some creatures so tiny or quick we too easily miss their existence, and never see their beauty.  I also have a particular love for marine mammals and wildlife having spent quite a lot of time with wildlife photographer and conservationist Mark Carwardine.
