Photographer Biography
Hi,
I'm Joe :-)
I am 15 years old and hope to become a Biologist/Photographer when I leave university.
I live in a largish town called Abingdon near Oxford which is renowned for it's history and the fact that the river Thames runs straight through it. A small group of lakes called the Radley Lakes are where at least 80% of my photos are taken - it is home to many insects (especially dragonflies such as the rare Clubtail), birds and mammals (we now have Otters living on the Thames!). Though currently we're battling against N-Power to keep them from being filled in with toxic waste from a nearby power station! They've already done so to two of the lakes!
I started off with a tiny Goodmans G-shot camera and then gradually progressed to a Canon Powershot S3 IS and finally to the Canon EOS 400D and a small array of lenses which I'm using at the moment. A lot of people think that my parents must be spoiling me by getting me all this stuff but actually I am paying for it all... my parents loaned me some money and now I'm paying it all off with a paper round. I should be out of debt by November :-)
Nature photography is my favourite subject to shoot though I enjoy other photography too like portraits and events. Within nature I love to take photos of birds and invertebrates like insects and arachnids - what fascinates me most are the tiny lenses in the compound eye of an insect so as long as I can capture them, then I'm happy :-)
My other interests include playing sports like football and tennis and also art.
I hope to learn lots from this site and welcome your comments.
