| | | Hello from Scotland
My name is Ian McLeish and I live in Clarkston, East Renfrewshire. My interests are in photography of places I have visited in Scotland and anything to do with wildlife but mainly my local flora and fauna...... I am not so good at the wildlife photos and hope to get some tips from the brilliant photographers on WAB.
So far I have been well impressed with both the galleries and the kind words in the forum to new members.
I hope to be able to contribute to WAB and look forward to being an active member.
At this time I have a web address where my photos are published but think it would be worthwhile uploading anything of interest to WAB. Perhaps some of the regulars could advise me.
Thanks

Hi there from the Outer Hebrides, I am a new member too, I also am amazed at the wonderful pictures which to me are better than what is published in most bird books, wild flowers etc. I have my photos on google picasa not sure if I can link them through this forum but although proud of them most of them are not where near the standard of some of the professional photographers though I have uploaded a few. Hope the weather is better where you are then here its blowing a gale and had been raining for 4 days, not fauna/ bird watching weather.
Enjoy the site its the best one I've found.

Welcome to WAB.. is it a sign of global warming that this site is attracting so many members from further and further north?

Jaki,
I dont think its about Global Warming, its just that we, from the Far north did'nt want to steal your thunder by our outstanding scenery and wildlife. I take from your comment that you are pleased that The Scots are now contributing to WAB.

eeyore,wish I had been, he seems to have been a very proficient photographer. My only claim to fame is being related to a once famous footballer and manager....in Scotland that is.....think his name was Alex [2nd cousin] anyway thanks for the welcome
