I am a fan of nature in all its wild forms and spend most of my time exploring and photographing the bio-diversity of Southern France.
My macro lens is the one mounted most to my camera as there is a fascinating parallel world of plants and insects on show if you just take the time to slow down and look.
The amazing thing about nature is the more you discover about it, the more amazing it becomes. When you can put a name to something you see it more and more, you then start to see and name other species and suddenly you're hooked.
If my images can inspire someone to look a little deeper into the world around them, that would be fantastic.
