Hi Andy, hope all is well. Thank you for the lovely comments regarding 'Cornwall The Wild Peninsula', as you probably know it was a self funded project - it's something I'm so glad I did. Since completing that film I have worked on several programmes for BBC Southwest and am currently working a stint on a new Natural World film - which is a dream come true for me. I have been fortunate enough to earn my living from filming wildlife for the past year and a half. It has been hard work, but have loved every minute of it and is now a way of life - lucky me eh :-)

Anyway - thanks for taking the time to drop us a line - love the photo's on your page, nice work.

Cheers
Pete

HI Jason

Thanks for the warm welcome, and I hope to be able to add some of my photos and join in with the discussions when I can. The photo in my profile was taken by my wife while we were seal watching of the coast of the Llyn Peninsula!
