Advanced Member - Andy Davies
My father first introduced me to the art of photography at the age of 10. Since then I have been a keen amateur photographer on and off for about 30 years taking photographs on a wide selection of subjects.
I have now got back into photography from a 2 year break and now specialise in landscape and nature digital photography. My interest in wildlife and nature started when I was 8 years old when my father joined me in the Young Ornithologists Club of Great Britain.
I now support several societies/charities that support wildlife and nature, namely the Cornwall Wildlife Trust (CWT), Royal Society for the Protection of Bids (RSPB) and the World Wildlife Fund (WWF). All of my photographs are true representations of what I see. My images are not digitally manipulated apart from the use of levels, curves, saturation and some dodging and burning.
I currently use a Sony A700 DSLR with various lenses, flashes and filters etc.
I am currently nearing the end of my 2 year A-Level photography course which I have found immensley useful and inspiring.
In February 2010 I was honoured to be selected to judge this year's Charles Hosken Competition for the Cornwall Photographic Alliance (CPA) which highlights the excellent images of the cream of Cornish club photographers.
My ambition is to become a semi-professional photographer. I hope you enjoy the photos that follow.
