"Its all down the lens you use. You need a fast lens which has a large lens on the front which enable you to blur the back ground so the subject stands out, plus faster the lens means better low light (dawn or dusk)shots. Some people use compacts…"

-3c, 5am and Misty

Out on the River bank first this morning, trying the Otters again this with camera in hand. Saw them over the weekend as the river returning to its normal level after being up and down for the last ten days, only had the binoculars then.

No sight of them this morning, heard them, just lots of sheep staring through the mist.

Just got very cold,but will be back again, some think very pleasing being out there this morning.

Year long project

Just left the wildlife film group, for now. To enable me to concentrate on my photography together the video with in the camera.

Planing to do a coffee table book, Going to cover every aspect of living in Wensleydale and through all the seasons.

As a keen walker I have been to get to know a lot of the farmers and the villagers over 30 years. So this will cover working the life on the farms and in the villages. Not forgetting the wildlife.
