I loved 2017, it was a year of change and a great year of progression for me. I’ve experimented and I’ve taken risks, some worked, some didn’t, but I’ve learnt from all of them. What lies ahead for 2018? More experimentation and some great big challenges, but bring them on.
But for now a look back at 2017 and some of my favourite images. I took so many this year that many that should be included aren’t so this is literally a snapshot.

Although photoshop was used heavily for this photo, all the animals were photographed in their respective places with that background and then I combined the images together to create the finished image,
Shot at 200mm at F2.8. The focal plane is incredibly small so only the closest eye is in focus. But the background is a resulting soft blur of greens
Another photo to break the rule of thirds!
