About Me
- Mike Attwood
- Evacuated during the second world war to a village in Yorkshire where I lived in the home of a good photographer for more than five years who taught me the basics and a great deal about nature. Well past retirement age I have been a wildlife photographer for more than 30 years. Red Kites have been my speciality for much of this period. I did spend several years snapping wheelchair athletes and organizing the British Road Race Championship. In the year 2000 I was awarded a distinction by the Royal Photographic Society for my portfolio on wheelchair athletes. Most of my pics are digital, using Sony cameras and Sigma lenses. I used to spend many weeks each year with friends in Wales which is close to the Elan Valleys where I got many of my raptor pics. I now get these pictures more closely to home, specially red kites and peregrines. I support my pension by selling my pics, cards, coasters, fridge magnets and key rings etc. at craft fairs, something I wish I had done much earlier in life. I give illustrated talks to clubs and societies on wildlife and other branches of photography that I have been involved in.
It seems that the only way to talk about my post is publish then pass a comment on it.
ReplyDeleteAs you see the foxes call regularly each night for their supper. One of them , Junior, I can talk to without him getting alarmed. He even grunted at me the other night, probably saying thankyou.
Is there not a follower of this blog who lives close by and could come and help you resolve these issues? I would guess they are not especially difficult.
ReplyDeleteThankyou David, I have some good friends nearby who are most helpful. I am not sure of the originality of the disc as I have already had to do some clearing up. Don't worry I'm getting there.

It's a very strange problem that you have, Mike. I use the same Blogger template that you do, and have no problem entering text. I wish I lived closer to you as I would willingly pop in to see if I can help you out.
ReplyDeleteSuper shots of Junior.
Best wishes - - - Richard
