*wave*

hi everyone, im glad to have joined this forum, i am a tree cutter by trade (who also does a fair share of planting.) and i love wildife. I'm fortunate enough in my line of work to see all types of plant and animal life all over the south west of scotand, but it was not until last week when i came accross an Adder on the woods edge, i realised know one was really as excited as i was so i had better get myself online with some like minded people.

I have a degree in arboriculture, so if there are any tree related probems or queries i will try my best to give good advice.

thankyou

Talking Re: *wave*

Hey Everyone,

I have just joined the site in the last couple of minutes as I am starting to get really interested in photography in general and would like to give wildlife photography a go, and so might be looking for guidance and advice every now and then.

My interest has been roused as my girlfriend who is a Video Director and Producer has just opened a studio for Film and Photography in a converted Dairy Loft on a farm in Hampshire, and the farmer has agreed to allow me access to all his land and the use of the deer hides on his land, there is a large herd of wild deer in the area. I am hoping that with patience I should get some amazing results. (If they aren't it certainly won't be down to the setting)

And at least if the weather is bad I can stay dry in the studio.

Hi there and welcome to the site, you are definitely in the right place for help with photography wildlife, there are some really knowledgable (not me - I only take pics and don't do anything complicated!) and very helpful people here. Look forward to your pics.
