Hi Everyone!!

Hello to Everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My names is Brian Phipps and I was passed on this website via a birdwatching colleague, and I`m only dissapointed with one thing....I didn`t find it a lot sooner!!

One of the best things about it is that its British Nature your intersted in, outside of my day job with the Environment Agency, I do wildlife photography, 90% in the West of England where I live.

I admit to having no interest in anything outside of Britain, and have no plans to ever photograph abroad, there is far too much in this Country untouched, more than I could ever wish for!
I `m looking foward to learning more, passing on info and contributing to this website when ever possible.


Regards
Brian

Re: Hi Everyone!!

Welcome to WAB Brian. I share your feeling entirely re the UK, When I've photographed every possible bit of wildlife on these shores I might just consider going abroad.
Enjoy your time here, I'll look forward to seeing your posts in the forum and the Gallery.

Re: Hi Everyone!!

Hello Brian

Welcome to WAB.

I was exactly the same as you when I discovered WAB .... why did I not find it sooner? Anyway you have finally arrived now!

I followed the link to your website and instantly recognised it having seen it before. You have some excellent photos there. We have a gallery here on WAB so it would be great if you could post some of your images there too.

Richard
