I have been keen on photography since a<br />
young age but I started taking photography<br />
more seriously as a hobby about 10 years<br />
ago. To make the most of my interest, I spent<br />
a year in Dunedin completing a Certificate<br />
in Digital Photography in 2016. Since then I<br />
have become more capable, particularly<br />
with using my camera in manual mode. I<br />
am especially interested in photographing<br />
nature in all its diversity.<br />

BIRDING MOMENTS<br />
I get so much enjoyment out of photographing<br />
animals. Specifically, I find myself spending a lot<br />
of time watching and photographing birds. This<br />
series represents some of the great variety of<br />
birds we have in New Zealand.<br />
The White-Fronted Tern photo was taken in<br />
Tauranga, where a large group of terns were<br />
nesting on the edge of a busy bridge. The Wood<br />
Pigeon photo was taken at Zealandia, a fenced<br />
ecosanctuary in Wellington. The Fantail photo<br />
was taken at my house. Initially the lighting<br />
wasn’t great but the clouds parted just in time.<br />
The Australasian Crested Grebe photo was taken<br />
in Queenstown. It is one of my most memorable<br />
bird watching moments as it was the first Grebe I<br />
had ever seen.
